Title: Dip stick tube plug Post by: Mike P on January 20, 2017, 20:03:14 pm I've got a new universal case that is the base for a new 2007 for a notchback. I was wondering if anyone had an idea as to the best way to plug the dipstick tube for T-3 application. I was thinking about cutting it as close to the case as possible and tapping it for a pipe plug, but it's a little on the small side for 1/8" NPT plug . What are your guy's thoughts on how to eliminate or plug off the dip stick tube. Thanks in advance.

Tap it for a metric M8 grub screw? Title: Re: Dip stick tube plug Post by: Mike P on January 21, 2017, 03:59:18 am Just what I was looking for. Thanks

it's what i did to mine.

The plugged hose and clamp way did cross my mind I was just trying to find something else.
