914 Dipstick and dipstick tube dimensions

Post by Piledriver »

Just grabbed some measurements off a pair of 914 blocks for the dipstick/tube, figured should put them up for reference...

Dispstick measurements, 914 case, EA code or GA code, just measured off 2 blocks.

Dipstick tube top from case boss: 5 15/16"
Dipstick tube top from top of breather chimney: 2 1/32"
Dipstick seating surface to "full" mark: 13 3/8"

Done with a tape measure, so give or take a few thou.

It's not critical, I have ~always run 5 quarts.
Addendum to Newtons first law:
zero vehicles on jackstands, square gets a fresh 090 and 1911, cabby gets a blower.
EZ3.6 Vanagon after that.(mounted, needs everything finished) then Creamsicle.

You know...for cross reference I will measure the unmolested EA case and tube I have on my workbench from my 412...and compare. I'll post later. Ray
