Installation notes
This dipstick is fitted directly into the engine block without a separate guide tube. Check before installation which type was originally fitted to your engine — early and late versions are not interchangeable.
Compatibility
Please note: early type (short, without tube) and late type (with separate metal guide tube) are different. Check your original version. The early variant was used in the first production runs, the later version with separate tube followed during wartime production.
Historical context
During wartime production, the oil dipstick construction was modified from a short direct mounting to a version with separate metal guide tube, which improved serviceability.
