[QUOTE="Ruger, post: 1175840, member: 1594"] I did it bare-handed the first time. That was three years ago, and the scars on my knuckles are still apparent. There is an aftermarket dipstick available, but they stupidly designed it to be mounted to the firewall instead of the engine. Continual flexing makes it prone to leak. The only solution appears to be the simple one: leather gloves. Fingerless leather gloves to aid in the manipulation of the "dipstick" in such close confines. I imagine that there are hundreds of unhappy Ford maintenance techs all across the country... [/QUOTE]
