Does anyone know if the dipstick tube will pull out of the block of a "1990 yj" for replacement. It leaking oil and its got me puzzled.:???:

The last time I pulled mine out of my 360 it pulled right out~with vise grips, damn thing broke off at the block again~but it won't anymore, heh heh

Supposed to be an "O" ring in there that's replaceable. Exercise caution during removal or you will also break it off.

After removing the bolt that holds the tab, gently wiggle it out.

Like Buckshot said, it will wiggle right out, that is if we're talking about a 4.2L. When I put mine back in i put some red RTV around it where it would be seated without the O ring and haven't had a problem since.
