This thread went WAY off!

Dude, change the damned o-ring!

If that doesn't make it pop in as tight as it should go, then put your dipstick in until it's fully seated. Once seated, squeeze the top of it gently (the lip on the stick, NOT the feed tube!) with a pair of needle nose pliers until there is more resistance required to pull it out. Easy peasy.

Used to happen to me (and others) back in the day... in both my 180SX and my GT-R.

As far as your hesitation goes, it has NOTHING to do w/the dipstick issue- put fresh #6 plugs in there (since stock SR setup), clean the air filter element and never EVER use octane booster... and you will probably not have hesitation anymore. If you do after that, check for boost/vac leaks.

Also, please take an English class.
