Easier Dipstick Access

Finally got a Round Tuit. Let me know if bending the hose a little has consequences I haven't thought of!

Simple.. add a ty-wrap as shown!

I'd suggest padding the zap strap with a piece of rubber so there's less chance of wear or chaffing on that hose.

Kind of funny that the on one car in the world you have to check the oil the most, they made it the most difficult of all to check.
