    Dipstick tube not fitting?

    I got a tube and stick from a 7.3. After putting it on, the tube is loose and the stick doesn't get any oil on it. If I were to put the 7.3 stick in the original tube, I would get oil. What gives? The new tube is the one on top.

    When I'm driving the truck, the tranny won't switch gears until I let off the throttle. I've been told it could be a vacuum leak? Not sure. Has this happened to anyone?

    Seal rear window?

    The rear window of the cab has a gap in between where the two windows should meet. The gap is about an inch wide, and sometimes lets water in when it rains. I sealed it with some aluminum tape, but I want to know what I need to get it to seal properly. Thanks.

    The horn didn't work when I bought the truck, so I looked in the manual to find the horn fuse, and figured out it was blown. I bought some new 20amp fuses and it blew immediately. So I tried it for a second time - same result. Anyone have ideas? Thanks!
