which tool is used to check the oil level in the engine
Dipsticks can also be used to measure the quantity of liquid in an otherwise inaccessible space, by inserting and removing the stick and then checking the extent of it covered by the liquid. The most familiar example is the oil level dipstick found on most internal combustion engines.
Other kinds of dipsticks are used to measure everything from fuel levels to the amount of beer left in an ale cask.
A testing dipstick is usually made of paper or cardboard and is impregnated with reagents that indicate some feature of the liquid by changing color. In medicine, dipsticks can be used to test for a variety of liquids for the presence of a given substance, known as an analyte
They are usually brightly coloured, and extremely rough to the touch.

I hope this was helpful. Thank you!
Dear Candidate,
This needs to be done with care & seriousness to not get a skewed reading. Many a times, this can be misinterpreted. Steady the vehicle on level surface for some time. Turn off the engine for it to cool down. So that, the engine oil takes it time to drain back into oil pan. Insert a dipstick to check the oil level & withdraw it, hold it vertical with the end pointing downwards so that you don't get an incorrect reading.
Thanks.
Measure dipsticks can be used to check oil level in engines. They help us measure the level of liquid at places where is is inaccessible usually.
In this we insert the stick and then take it out and the length of the stuck covered in oil gives us an estimation of the level of oil in the engine.
Hope it helps
