I removed and installed the dipstick tube with the engine still in while I was replacing the pan and pickup. I just used a cloth wrapped around the tube with visegrips lightly attached. Hammered up on the vise grips to detach tube from pan and then wiggle it up and out. Getting the tube back down to the pan was a bit harder but do-able and I used a little grease on the O-ring to help it slide in. Edit--- Of course there is one bolt holding the dipstick tube in place. I was assuming this bolt is removed.

For future reference Neil can be seen roaming the streets in this.... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v709/vtbmw525/Funny%20Stuff/garfield_box_1.jpg

True......I'll get more vids of him and her to share with everyone.

Nah, I just dont spend much time up there. Usually one night when I go and only 5 times a year. I'll make it my mission to find some next time. Thinking of maybe driving up on Sat.

Pretty much all the same area. A stones throw from each other.

WTF, I never see LGT's when Im up visiting my sister in Essex jct.

Spotted a red fourth gen LGT with Mass plates at High Altitude ski shop in West Dover VT (Mount Snow). Looked stock.

Spotted a blue or black (dirty) LGT with red multispoke wheels (looked like spec B's) on route 100 in Wilmington Vt. I just pulled into my shop in my LGT.

A heartwarming exchange.

Oil light came on on the dyno a few times. We shut it down after 30 min. on the dyno. Loaded up on the trailer and there was a nice loud knocking. Dropped the oil when we got back and it looks like some nice metallic flake paint. He used a STI oil pump, killer b pickup. Havent talked to him yet today so I dont know what he found.....

Yup that was us. Did not go well either....

A rarity and long shot. Spotted 20 mins ago in Brattleboro. Silver '05 LGT debadged except for legacy. I was behind you going up Rte 9. We hit triple digits at least once before you turned toward Marlboro college. I was in my black Avalon. It's supercharged, that's why you couldnt shake me . PM me if you see this. Im building my LGT stage II and my buddy here is building his stage II.

Just finished mine. Love it. Dont know why I waited so long. Added a personal touch because I was in there. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v709/vtbmw525/My%2005%20LGT/IMG_8747.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v709/vtbmw525/My%2005%20LGT/IMG_8746.jpg
