Got it thanks! Bent the dipstick in the process though, I hope this doesn't affect the reading. That thing is a ***** to maneuver.

aw, come on...
a public question should have a public answer yes?
I'm guessing you sent him a PM with a link to a pdf or something. putting in the highlights would be nice for others browsing this site.
Thanks.

Typed out the whole schmazzle (AND bumped the Delete key)

Frustrated...
Sent him Linky.

Only really important parts are:
Check on ABSOLUTELY LEVEL ground
AFTER
DRIVING 20 minutes @ Highway speeds (TO fully Warm up ATF)
AND
Letting engine Idle in Park for 2-3minutes.

Brecchi,

You have to Canoodle/Finesse the ATF dipstick into the Tube.
(Sorta like twisting whilst inserting)
