RS Alloy sump problems... URGENT PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

[Gareth]

Went to check the oil level on my Escy yesterday after noticin an oil leak,

 

Pulled out the dipstick and the steel guide pipe came with it.

 

Any tips on getting it fitted tightly again without removing the sump

 

There's a drink waitin @ cf for someone with the best solution first

Ah yes mine done that.

 

Try giving the end a slight tap on the end to oval it.

 

Then tap gently bh in the hole.

With a smattering of super glue for good measure

get some wurth bearing lock from local car shop clean tube add the bearing lock and tap tube back in place

[andy_rs2k]

seconded, locktite or bearing lock does the trick

I use the red gasket paste as its unaffected by heat, oil, fuel etc & you can get the tube out at a later date without destroying/crushing it,
