Oil Stick Problem - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

kecah04 · 12-10-2007, 04:01 PM

I just purchased an 84 Custom Deluxe 10 that has a 305 that is not original. The most concerning problem is that the Oil Stick tube has been removed. My urgent need is to replace it, however, it appears that someone may have taken a chisel and messed the hole up a bit. I'm thinking that the only way to fix this is to Drill it out, then vacuum the shavings out, then rinse it out with something, then change the oil right away. If anyone has any other ideas, I would greatly appreciate them.
