Thanks for all the help everyone - I am relieved that I dont have to order a
truck for the ride to the shop.
Pavel - I broke the dipstick simply by re-inserting it. I must have twisted
it somehow - the steel is only slightly springy, but it snapped clean. I had
to use bolt cutters to cut the another piece off - the metal is really tough
when it wants to be......
