I THINK I'm pushing the dipstick all the way in. I'm pretty sure it's all the way it. The top of the dipstick cap appears to be fully engaged to the tube. What is this "click" of which you speak?

Those 8-9 qts of oil don't drain to pan, in two mins...
Mine click's/snap's: it has two rubber O-rings around the top of hosel under pull ring.
My tip w/markings, is a burnt red color, bordering on brown; a bit hard to see, but wipe
it clean and look in indirect light.
But, I would wait more than a min or two, for drain-down.
This is oil level checking, not engine rebuild...
