Dipstick Cleaner - Chris Garner - 01-02-2022

Dipstick cleaner designed for a Morris Minor. The centre felt has a hole thro' which the dipstick passes to clean it.
Never seen one before. Did anyone make one for Austins?

Rather regrettable that it isn’t suitable for Spring and Autumn.
Give me an old rag anytime.

Wipe with finger then wipe finger on the ground. Does not transfer grit to the dipstick.

Impractical gadgets make money out of the ill informed!

.. and slow their cars down through added tat! (We have an old style torch in the modern which weighs about a kilo. I tried to remove it to add to future mpg, but was advised it had been put in to act as a fending-off weapon)

My MGF has a built-in dipstick wiper, but even so I still use a cloth.
