Who uses a Lokar Transmission dipstick ??? I have one for my 350th. It is awful difficult to see where the trans fluid level is supposed to be.

Anyone else having this problem ???

OPEN YOU RE EYES I HAVE THOSE ON MY CARS NO PROBLEM

LOL Thanks............ I guess it is a little low, no leak though.

Just keep putting oil in until it is full (level) at the hole in top of the valve cover gasket. :devil:

get it stuck.....burnt clutches in oil makes it easier to see:devil:
i feel for ya bud,im in early stages of cataracks and its gettin harder to see every day

Can you feel the love in this thread?? NPHNP at its finest! Can't wait to see you this weekend Ricky!

oh yeah .......I feel the love.......

Ricky funny you ask. I checked mine today and I saw it fine but a friend of mine said its only 3/4 full and I had to tell him to look for the shine and he says yep full. so it is a little hard but I think you just have to look at the right angle.

Used one for my 350th before without issues. Now I have one for my 700r4.

Don't get me wrong, I like Lokar's 'stick. :yes:

It's just plan hard not to overfill. I have'nt seen any tiny fluid spouts to pour the fluid into.....

Ricky, I have a Lokar stick on my 700r4. It is plastic and I scuffed it some with a scotch-brite pad to take the shine off. That made it easier to read the fluid level. It also came with a small adapter/funel that is used for fluid fill.

Ricky, we'll see what you are dealing with this weekend. I have a funnel i bought a long time ago that I use for tranny fluid. You can get them at most part stores for a couple dollars. its is a smaller size regular funnel and has a long, flexible straw connected to the bottom of it.

I have a small funnel, the hole is tiny. Thanks for giving crap guys, even if it is'nt the BS forum.

Mine's plastic (nylon?) too...by the time you get it fished out so you can see it, the fluid just shrinks away and makes it hard to read. I'll have to try the scotchbrite trick, that sounds like a great idea.

I have one also and find it hard to see. I'm using B&M Trick Shift which is blue and on a grey stick it's tough
