Engine oil level

Former Member
Former Member over 10 years ago


I would like to measure the level of a diesel engine's  oil through the dip stick tube using a Electro-Optic Type sensor. Diesel engine oil is very black. Could a Electro-Optic sensor be made that thin or is there another sensor that will do the job using the dip stick tube. This is to avoid damaging the engine while your driving the car.

    sorry, but this the support newsgroup/forum for Cadsoft Eagle (a

    schematic and layout editor) not a general electronic or element14

    sales support forum.

     

    You will most likely get more answers if you move to an appropriate

    forum.
