4l60 dipstick install.... help
I bought a flexable dipstick for my 4l60 into a 80. I removed the incorrect on the shop installed and put in the correct one. The problem is I can't get the dipstick tube to seat all the way in the trans. It is in a very tight spot and I can't get leverage to seat it with the car on stands. Any ideas on how to seat it all the way? Tricks? anything so I can finish that part of the project..
thanks

can you take a picture to show what you are talking about?
I have a trans that is a 4l80 case and I have plenty of room to get in there...
maybe just a coat hanger that you can wrap around the dipstick, pull straight down to seat it, and then bend the hanger to get it off the dipstick..

coat hanger, swearing, channel locks, having a second person from the engine bay twist left to right while you try to push the tube down into the grommet. All these have worked fine for me
