Prater 75 #1 Posted November 17, 2009 Will the dipstick and tube from a 16hp motor fit the 10hp motor or do I need to find one from a small block Kohler? My 10HP does not have one and I would like to add it for easier maintenance. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rickv1957 70 #2 Posted November 17, 2009 10 thru 16hp use the same dipstick and tube with the big oil pan, the rubber mount engines use a shorter dipstick,Rick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Prater 75 #3 Posted November 17, 2009 Thanks Rick, I need to add the dipstick and tube. This is a solid mount like the 16HP parts engine I have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TT-(Moderator) 1,127 #4 Posted November 17, 2009 If your 241 has the "old-school" square-headed pipe plug/rod style dipstick it won't be drilled for the bolt on dipstick tube. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Prater 75 #5 Posted November 18, 2009 TT, Thats what I have on the 10HP, I will go to my pallet of parts and see what the 16HP has. Where is a good place to get an old style pipe plug tube and dipstick? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TT-(Moderator) 1,127 #6 Posted November 18, 2009 The old style didn't have a tube.... it was screwed directly into a tapped hole in the block. It would look like this one: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Prater 75 #7 Posted November 18, 2009 Maybe I already have that one. I will check tonihgt. It looked like someone had taken the tube and added some pipe to the block. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rickv1957 70 #8 Posted November 18, 2009 Steve,I was thinking the C100 had the new style dipstick,Rick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Prater 75 #9 Posted November 18, 2009 OK, I am an idiot. I have a dipstick already, just like the one TT showed in the pic. Its just not as easy to check as the one my other WH...At least the oil is new in the block. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rickv1957 70 #10 Posted November 18, 2009 steven,sounds like you have it covered but there is the correct dipstick on ebay now for 0.99, Rick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
