    Never heard of this before. What type of car is it.

    When was it last serviced. Have you tried turning as you spray a little

    bit of WD40 into it, might work.

    Ok, how about starting the car, let it warm up a bit, then get a vise-grip

    small one, if you can. Get one solid bite on the dip-stick.

    Now try twisting and turning it. Maybe the odd little short sharp taps

    up on the vise-grips too. Hope that helps.
