I'm an old guy on Social Security. With current gas prices, I find it difficult to both fill the tank and buy a new dipstick each week. Here's my plan - my Black Diamond still has the factory oil fill in it - I'll park on a level surface and see where the oil is on the dipstick. After several measurements, I'll grab my Dremel and grind a mark on the dipstick that came with the vehicle. That will be my personal mark. I'm also looking into patenting disposable dipstick. They will permanent stain the stick at the current oil level and have an area where you can record the date, temperature, etc. I'll sell a walnut base that the used sticks can be inserted into to form a "Gearhead bouquet."
