440 dipstick calibration

Post by Rob.Dilley »

Wotcher,

Just fitted a chrome plated dipstick tube from Andy, but do not have the old dipstick tube for comparison.
How do you verify that the level markings on the dipstick are accurate?
Do you just fill the engine with the correct amount of oil for a oil and filter change (whatever that is) and check the reading, or is there a better method.
