is it possable to have elevated crankcase pressures bad enough to blow the dipstick out of the tube, but yet not show evidence of burning oil on the exhaust side of things. I am contemplating using my money budgeted for other things to put together a new 6-bolt, but if I can nurse my old 7-bolt until later it would be optimal..... what can I look at to determine what is wrong and how to fix it.
also, I am putting a new turbo on the car and dont want to hurt it, will this situation possably hurt the new snail??? -------------------- You CAN sleep in your car, but your CAN NOT race your house!!!

Very common.. seal goes bad on the dipstick. you can pinch the dipstick with a pair of pliers to get it to stay in place, or buy a new dipstick...
