i have a couple of dipsticks kicking about.

i have fitted the one i thought was the 1.8 zetec dipstick and had to re shape it to fit between the exhaust supercharger etc.

we filled the engine up with oil the other day and Zak reckons its not reading right as it didnt take as much oil as it usually should.

has anyone got a photo of what a 1.8 zetec dipstick should look like? or can they measure theirs for me?

i really dont want to be driving about with the wrong amount of oil in my new engine...

I can. But It'll be tomorrow as it's raining.
S2 silvertop if it makes a difference.
