dip stick question

[svo978]

I have a 99 35th, and the dip stick is twisted, and it sucks. I was wondering if all the newer mustangs have this crappy dip stick. My 96 had a normal one.
Has anyone changed to a different dip stick and which one?

all the newer stangs have the crappy dipstick. im pretty sure my 98 GT has it too.

So nice of a design.

Some one should make a replacement part I bet everyone who works on their own car would buy one! I'd be first in line!

i think ford made it like that just so they could come to stangnet and see some guy say "i hate my dipstick"

yea it pretty much blows! it bends at the top and then you have to try 2 to 4 times to get it in the hole all the way I hate it when that happens. lol!
