haha.. thats the thing.. i dont have a dipstick... the old one is broken off...inside ....wiath the headers ..i cant get it out ...to put in a new tube....
I'm getting tons of rattling .....like theres a socket or something inside the motor....and when i turn....it moves it around... and gets worse.. or when i brake.... the rattle /knock...goes away when i'm on the gas...just wondering if its cause i dont have enough oil in it..

haha, your motor is going to die

The only thing to do is fix it or call the manufacturers.
