How can I stop the dip stick from rising from the oil filler tube?

When I drive my Valiant the dip stick rises about 1 inch out of the filler tube.

Excessive blow by most likely time for a rebuild. I would run a compression test and a leak down test. You may also make sure your PCV system is working correctly and you have the correct style oil fill cap.
