thanx for the ideas. here's the deal...the engine is still on the stand, but I've already mounted the adapter, using a gasket, but can't remember if there was an O-ring or not. So, do I pull the adapter off, and check it, or will the combination of adapter + O-ring be a problem? Also, how do you plug the dipstick...just pull it out and put a cap over it, or silicone? thanx steve
