Checking out the club C152 yesterday, I remembered a story my instructor told me of when a dipstick which hadn't been tightened properly had started to rattle, thus causing the student to panic, thinking the engine was on its way out.
Question is, would an unsecured dipstick result in a reduced oil pressure showing on the gauge?
[BTW, I'm not one of the "tighten it till it strips" brigade]
