  Q: How to replace the Dipstick Tube and oil level indicator on GMC Yukon XL 1500?

  A:

  The procedure for substituting the oil level indicator and tube consists of first removing the oil level indicator from the tube then uninstalling the oil level indicator tube bolt. The first step involves removing the oil level indicator tube from the engine block while ensuring the o-ring will be usable again so inspect it before replacement. Clean engine oil should be used to lubricate the o-ring seal before placing it on the oil level indicator tube. Start by placing the oil level indicator tube behind the Exhaust Manifold before raising and supporting the vehicle. Insert the tube into the block except not exceeding the collar position with the block surface. Start by lowering the vehicle while you should install the oil level indicator tube bolt to a torque of 25 nm (18 ft. Lbs.) before putting on the oil level indicator.
