After i changed my oil, i checked the oil level on the dipstick and i noticed that it was bent.....i went to the local ford dealership to ask what they thought......this is what they said.....

"I think that the dipstick is too long....or maybe you are cramming it in there...."

So i ordered a direct ford replacement...when it came in, the head mechanic eased the dipstick into place and said "come back in a couple of days".

well i drove around for a couple of days without touching the dipstick...when i returned, the head ford mechanic popped of and said "if this dipstick isn't bent then you owe me $20...if it is then i owe you $20...."

upon pulling the dipstick, sure enough, it was bent...he then paid me and said that he had no idea what was happening...

ANYONE HAVE ANY IDEAS ON WHAT IS GOING ON????
