RETIRED!
Do any of you that have adjusted the A/C line have pictures of the part(s) you are loosening to move the line? After seeing Fitzmotor's video of how far the engine moves, the 3/8ths inch space that I have is probably not adequate.

Thanks!

The notes section of the instructions has the picture with the bolt to loosen for the A/C line, if you feel like it's still a little close, you can easily adjust the line over by hand, just apply pressure to the line, shift it to the left.

It's very long aluminum line with big bends and a long mounting bracket, it's very easy to move it to the left and back a little if needed.

I can see I need to add this in the instructions, this is the third or fourth time I have had a request for the information that is in the notes section.

The notes section must be getting missed by some installers, it is kinda my fault, I used the wrong Microsoft word program for the instructions, adding the pics and text so it looked okay was difficult, but, it would not let me page break without reshuffling the last page, that's why it ends so abruptly (I'm sure it was the lack of skill on my part) so I had to start a new section... I called it the notes section. I was pressed for time, the boxes were already in the mail and I was not done with the instructions.

That's why the video by quangdog was so great!

I hope to start over and remake the instructions before the next 20 something dipsticks and the 200+ after that.

But until then, the notes are a reference, please refer to them before installing the dipstick.

And thank you everybody, I would have no idea what was going on out there without your input, I know it takes time to take pics and post them up, I very much appreciate your efforts!!!

I must have a defective stick or a one of a kind because I do not see a serial #. Where is it supposed to be? I may have limited use of my right hand but now I might also be blind.?

Very itty bitty numbers at the top of one side of the stick, where it joins the handle....very light engraving.

Very light and small, every stick has one, right by the handle on the steel shaft of the stick.

I was too slow, the green mark is the QC identification, that means it has been through all of it's different steps.
Maybe just me & I know time is money, but I would have taken off the (Made in China part). ? ? LOL

Legally I cant, besides, I tried to remove the other text, it would require removing a lot of metal.

Will have to check later not by the truck now. I said it was had to see. Maybe it's 34.
You realize the lower the #, the more valuable it becomes as a future collector part.
I envy the member who has # 1 !!!! Destined to become a Mecum Auction rare high dollar sale.
