How to remove stock dipstick tube?? I am installing a TH400 tomorrow. I have all the parts I need, the only problem right now is that I can not get the stock dipstick tube out of the car. It is wedged in behind the motor. Is there a way to remove it or will I need to cut it to get it out? Thats the only thing I can think of right now. Please help!

i reached my arm as far behind the motor as possible and pulling from there. pulling from the top of the tube was doing nothing. reach as far down as you can and pull HARD !

Give me more pics of that chick in the avatar and i'll tell you how.....
Eh, i suppose i will help. If you absolutley can't get it out by pulling hard, then pull harder and if that don't work, drop the pan and you can see the dipstick tube in there. You can pull it with your right arm upwards and try and push it up wards with your left arm using a big screwdriver or anything that won't slip and damage something....it's a bitch i know, but it will come out.
You said you had the dipstick tube bolt out right?
