alright here is the deal. When I turn off my engine I hear a hissing sound. After using my super detective skills I have located the cause of the hiss. It comes from my dipstick. it sounds like suction, when I remove the dipstick it gets loud then goes away and nothing is blowing out.

So whats the deal? should I get a new dipstick and be done with it or is that just hiding a real problem? is there supposed to be suction there? the dipstick is old and the seal is beat.

 

I'd start by placing your PCV valve

PCV = Positive Crankcase Ventilation

You've obviously got some sort of air pressure differential occurring in the crank case, and I'm willing to be it's because the PCV valve is clogged up and not letting the pressure release
