i got this supra for cheap and some loser put the wrong tranny dipstick in it so i dont know how much fluid it has in it also i dont know where to get one ive tried everywhere and most people look at me like im retarded. anyway i was wondering if anyone would know where i could find one or even go out and measure theres so i can cut this generic one to size id like to get the low and full mark measurements too. that would be so helpful

I bought a brand new one from Toyota not too long back for my '88 because they changed the marker style to make it FAR more readable. IIRC it was only $18 or so for brand new. I'd highly suggest it.

yes i have tried the toyoota dealership in town and they ordered one but a week later they told me the part was "disscontinued" i also tried auto part stores and they dont sell them other then generic ones and the junkyards dont sell the part unless you buy a tranny

Tried a "You Pull It"?

It's a junkyard where you pay an entrance fee and pull the parts yourself, and pay for whatever you pull on the way out.
