35d dip stick - question.

Excuse my ignorance guys. But I can't seem to find a thread about. Is there a special way of removing the motor oil dip stick? I've been trying to twist, pull, push and it wouldn't come off. The book doesn't show it too. Didn't want to break the damn handle. Thanks

Yes. If still struggling, hit the gym for a week or two

Have you tried asking your grandma to pull it it out for you?

Your grandma has a nice grip and soft hands, at least I enjoyed it.

That's what is needed to get the stick out.
