Well, the car was from Texas. With that dipstick loose and dusty conditions? The engine bay was pretty dirty with dirt in it. Its also been sitting since I got it. It has only been fully warmed up a couple times. The dipstick is seriously horrible though. There has to be 3/16" of total slop where it should be a snug fit on the rubber pug. It fits in the hole, but just kinda flops around in it.
