coventryj Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 Does anyone know what aftermarket part Monaco used for their 1996 Sig's oil dipstick tube? Looks to be approx 32" in length. This one is leaking. Thanks. Jeanne C. 1996 Monaco Crown Royale Sig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vito.a Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 I suspect you would be better off repairing your existing tube. You should be able to clean it and braze it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coventryj Posted June 10, 2021 Author Share Posted June 10, 2021 Thank you! My mind went to "replace," not "repair." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redstickbill Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 Depends where it is leaking, where the tube enters the engine block it could be as simple as an "O" ring. Bill B 07 Dynasty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coventryj Posted June 10, 2021 Author Share Posted June 10, 2021 The leak is about 12" down from the top of the tube and comes from rubbing against a bolt head that secures the sensor for the turbo. The remainder looks okay so far. Jeanne C. 96 Sig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterSchweizer Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 Slide a hose over each end n use hose clamps if you dont want to weld it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pepperell Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 I had this problem with my 2003 Dynasty. The pieces that hold the top of the dipstick tube need to be adjusted so that there is no stress on the tube and it can’t vibrate. It will break a separate piece that the bottom of the tube fits on to. That piece is inserted from inside the crank case, requiring the removal of the oil pan. I had that done at Cummins 3 times! Fortunately I only paid once. The mess on the back of the coach and the motorcycle and it’s lift was prodigious. Hopefully you don’t have that problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ready2retire59 Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 I have a similar problem. My dip stick tube on my '03 Windsor broke by the clamp that holds the tube at the top of the engine near where the tube flares to accept the securing part of the dip stick itself. I was able to install a small piece of hose with claps at each end to hold the tube together for my last trip. Cummins was no help since the tube and dip stick were installed by Monaco and the length is determined by the application. The rest of the tube seems to be in sorry shape too rust wise. Does anyone know if there are any Monaco specs as to the length and possible part number of the tube? Thank you.
