dipstick tube lenth

[mini90]

I have one question about the dipstick tube on the timing case :

what is the correct lenth (A) for this tube ?
in my car , the level is full when I fit 3.5 liter of oil , so I think my distick tube is too short !



thanks for help!

Mini,
The quantity of oil you can get into your sump is bound to be wrong because, as I have pointed out in the other thread, you have a sump with a smaller bowl. Get the correct sump and all will probably be OK.
