Looking for suggestions on leaking push in style dipstick on a 302 oilpan. I have read the tech article on the conversion to a threaded type, but I just got the engine back in and running, dont really want to pull the oilpan if there is some other way. Coated it well with RTV before replacing it, but it is still leaking a significant amount at high RPM on the highway. ( My rear diff housing is well lubricated though). Considered sleeving with some thin wall rubber/latex tubing, any other ideas?
