I'm paid very good money to think sailor (Not as good as you are paid, but then again I don't handle tonnes of materials either, just tonnes of BS :P)

Sadly, it's because the dipstick is on the same side as the intake mani, and that's oriented to the rear of the engine bay. It never made sense to me, either. Then again, at 6'3" reaching the dipstick never posed that much of a problem. Note that the dipstick position is still the same with the Duratecs (4-cyls) and now easier to access at the front of the engine bay.

Unlike certain other male members of my family, I'm not going to carelessly bang the first thing that is willing.

Because the result if due caution is not exercised is as in his case. An eleven year old screw up and child support arrears out the ass :ph34r:

Speaking of ass, how was her's?
TEAM PITA Don't settle for a wannabe, only accept the real deal.

One day I will rule the world. For now, I have to settle for this place.
