dipstick location

[fitter]

for a friend

[dmbrisket 51]

if the friend is the machanicly inclined person why dont you show him/her, i beleve they are passenger side, its a yellow stick and should say oil right on it, tell your friend they cant miss it

[OverBoardProject]

A better idea, tell your friend to read the owners manual which should have come with the truck. There is so much info in there that they should know, not just the dipstick location.

If you know a little more about cars than they do you can show them what's what under the hood. It should only take about 10 - 20 min

yeah you really cant miss it, unless you have manual tranny and looking for tranny dipstick. then you will miss it for there isnt one. but if your friend would read the owners manual theyll figure it out.

^^^ there is to a tranney dip stick, its a red "pop" style one in the back by the distributor

[dmbrisket 51]

if it has a clutch, the tranny doesnt have a dipstick

god dont you guys know anything?! the muffler bearing oil is circulated around with the reare differential fluid, it draws off of that... what else would that ling going over and to the break be to? i mean c'mon

[OverBoardProject]

Don't forget to check the brake compressor oil too, you don't want those brakes to run out of air suddenly.... lol

[OverBoardProject]

and don't listen to my last coment, there is a such thing as air brakes but not on your truck

[dmbrisket 51]

yeah, they put air breaks on big trucks and small imports, notice that they make the same sound at oppisit times? when a truck stops it goes pshh, when a talon takes off really quickly and it shift gears it goes pshh, they should get their breaks looked at, or quit hitting them when they are accelerating...
