somebody please help me

 

Pull it harder!

On the 93 Accord, there is a bolt at the bottom of the tube, so you can unbolt the tube and remove it. Look and see if there is a bolt holding the dipstick tube on. If there is, remove it and that would probably help you get the dipstiq out.

 

If the orange handle is gone, get a pair of pliers to give you more grip and pull the dipstick out. You may have to wiggle it a little to get the rubber seal on the dipstick to release.

 

I noticed that the dipstick would rotate within the tube, I had got a pair of vise grips but didnt pull all that hard cause I didnt want to break anything... So maybe try to wiggle and pull at same time..thanks

 

Where might that bolt be located at?

 

2.3? Look where the lower timing belt cover and upper timing cover meet, there will be a a bolt for the cover/dipstick. It can be hard to see in car as the brackets from the PS can block the view.
