It's a pretty crude measurement technique. I bet there isn't much difference between bus and beetle dipsticks. It would be neat to see them side by side, though. _________________ Founder and Chairman Emeritus, ECMSAS

Or the gas tanks (barndoor x beetle), side by side, to compare the measurements. |

Completely dark. No problem if you need to check something in your Barndoor engine, even with 6v lamps

Have you considered simply starting with a nicer bus? I don't know what your skills are, but the race is easier if you can see the finish line. If you are not a runner, don't start off doing a marathon. |
