They say no question is a dumb question, right? lol... I have an 09 Nytro RTX, I just changed the crankcase oil. When going to check this oil, should the dipstick be screwed all the way back in? (or am I the dipstick)?

No, you don't screw the dip stick in to check oil level, you just set it in place. G.B.

I never screwed in the dip stick and never had a problem. I think either way you'll be fine.
Hooray!
