dip-stick dripping
My dip-stick is dripping..... No really tho the trans dipstick is leaking. I know its a flair and its tight. And ideas of what else I can do?

Re: dip-stick dripping
A light amount of RTV on the threads might do it.

Re: dip-stick dripping
Gotcha, have a rubber bung handy and jam it in there when you pull the tube. I'm with Digger, I bet the lip is deformed or has a small nick in it.
