Dipstick

No im not cursing someone .... :D :D


Given that ive got an oil leak from the crankshaft seal (to be sorted on Monday) I recognise I cant rely on visits to Fred to check my oil especially at the moment and although he showed me how to get to the dipstick I must admit ive avoided it.

Anyway at lunchtime I bit the bullet and searched for the step by step video on utube which has previously been referred to on another thread (is that Ian who made this?) on the iphone and sorted it. So anyone who isnt sure about this i urge you to search for this fantastic short film. :D :D

Very chuffed (simple things do please me as you have probably gathered lol!)
