Power Wagon Dip Stick

Went on a 1,250 mile road trip to Montana and went to check the oil and the handle is gone. I'm thinking the dip stick is sitting further down in the dip stick tube or I left it on the radiator and its laying along the road somewhere. I'm sticking with the first one.

Any suggestions for fishing that out? Will the tube pull out of the block so I can push the stick back out?

Use some bailing wire, or a coat hanger to feed down the tube to double check if it's still there. No sense pulling the tube out if you do not need to.

good idea, maybe even a extension tool magnet could retrieve it.

My checker tolled me sew.

A checker is a bless sing,
It freeze yew lodes of thyme.
It helps me right awl stiles two reed,
And aides me when I rime.

Each frays come posed up on my screen
eye trussed too bee a joule.
The checker pours o'er every word
To cheque sum spelling rule.

Bee fore a veiling checker's Hour
spelling mite decline,
And if we're lacks oar have a laps,
We wood bee maid too wine.

Butt now bee cause my spelling
Is checked with such grate flair,
Their are no fault's with in my cite,
Of nun eye am a ware.

Now spelling does knot phase me,
It does knot bring a tier.
My pay purrs awl due glad den
With wrapped word's fare as hear.

To rite with care is quite a feet
Of witch won should be proud,
And wee mussed dew the best wee can,
Sew flaw's are knot aloud.

Sow ewe can sea why aye dew prays,
Such soft wear four pea seas,
And why eye brake in two averse
Buy righting too pleas.
