Can't resist...so, how the heck did you break your dipstick??

My dip stick never went in all that smoothly and some metal fatigue occured causing the break.

This is from the 9442 catalog and it looks like there were a few different ones out there. I would make sure your replacement matches up the one you have as much as possible. You could have a serious problem if you ended up getting a bad reading from using the wrong one.

Dang. Never heard of that one...jeeze, now I have to check my dipstick too?? what else can break on these cars, huh? ;-)

na has shorter dipstick than turbo or S cars..

IIRC N/A has one dipstick, 86 turbo has another, 87+ turbo has yet another dipstick. I don't even know about the S, but why would we stop at only 3 different dipsticks?

The turbo differs from the N/A both in length, and in the shape of the handle (yellow plastic on the turbo, black metal on the N/A), the turbo ones differ in length only.

I broke the plastic handle off mine one day, now I can't leave it in there or it works its way down into the engine, so I use a N/A dipstick to plug the hole, and pliers and my old turbo dipstick to check the level, its great fun.
