Could anyone get this for me.
98 cont 4cyl atx

22 views and no one could do this for me? Come on and help me out by using two minutes of your time, and if you are careful, you don't even have to get dirty.

Did you stop to think those 22 views wern't from someone w/ a 98 zetec atx? If it is that big of a problem, which I cannont believe it is, go to a junk yard and check. Or wait a little more than 14 hours.

Edit: the dealer should have one for about $7.

Why do you need to know?

Mine broke (plastic handle snapped off of metal dipstick) so I got one for a 302 Ford (Autozone specialty).

Even reads right- same length!!!

I would like to know because when I got the oil changed, it read overfull with the right amount in. So to find out what is wrong, I will start out with the most simple solution.

As for your suggestion matt, not everyone has the time to go to a junkyard and mess around, I simply asked a question, and tried to persuade someone into giving me an answer, your rudeness is not needed.
