    Might explain why there's oil leaking out of the top of the dip stick! Now what?

    Just remove the dip stick, then bend and crimp the tube. This should keep the oil where it belongs.

    Engine seems to be blowing brown foam out of every orifice....and that dang transmission is acting funny as hell. Got a 4000 lbs trailer I have to tow on a 900 mile trip tomorrow. That should clear everything out
