Anybody ever made a replacement dipstick tube for a 7.3 IDI from a van? When I picked my van up, the dipstick was stuck in the tube and someone had broken off the handle. Got the old tube out and managed to get the old broken dipstick out of it but a new dipstick binds up in the tube which is probably why the old one broke off in there in the first place. Ford discontinued the part and I've been calling around to junkyards and nobody's got one. Thinking about making one from tube stock and welding the mounting tab on from the old one. Anybody done it?
