T3: RE: oil temp

["Erkson, Toby" <toby.erkson@intel.com>]

James,
They mean the park of the stick that you initially grab, not the actual 
part that sticks in the oil.  Yes, you would receive a nasty burn if you

grabbed the oil level indication part  :o

ok I got a question. I have seen people say that if you can not hold the

dipstick that the engine is to hot. But I have never been able t pull up

buy gas and even touch the dip stick and not get burnt fingers on any
car I 
have ever driven ???????
Is this true or just BS ??????????
