W123 Chassis Application / Engine OM617.912 NA 300D
There is a bracket with O-ring / grommit which holds the dip stick tube to the engine block. The one I got (found dangling) on the dip stick tube appears to be not able to bolt to anything. I did, however, remove the PS bracket since I do not need the PS System.
Does anyone out there know if the bracket which holds the dip stick tube to the engine is different when there is NO PS bracket, et cet? The PO opted to not bolt it up anyways when there was a PS bracket, but I am sure there is something different now since there is NO PS bracket.
Right now my dipstick tube is just held in by gravity. A little surprise I found out when I checked the oil for the first time about a month ago or 2 ago, and since the engine is out of the car, I want to get this fixed along with about a dozen or so surprises with this drivetrain.
Thanks !!!
