Remember I said other than ...

But you are correct about the quality.

BTW - checked with my SA who looked at another C43 and he said the dipsticks were the same color.

Oh well, dipsticks are inexpensive and come in non-girly colors.

Of course. But the one I was thinking of ordering only promised a.1 reduction in the quarter. Don't know if I want to go to all that trouble for anything less than.2.
