I have lost my new strainer crush ring (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/headbang.gif) and I have the strainer off (still have old crush ring). Will the copper drain plug crush washer work on the strainer (I have a couple extra of those)? I am trying to get ready for the last AX of the season and I have to get the oil in there tonight... sigh...
TIA Mike |

Jeeezzzzzzz. Come on, guys, it's the SAME part! How hard is that? They give tou TWO in the sump gasket kit! Just be sure the barely noticeable seam on the crush washer is pointed toward the head of the nut (or bolt, in the case of the drain plug). If there's no seam, it's the wrong seal. Silicone (RTV) will promote leaks. 11ft/lbs is the MAXIMUM torque. If it leaks then, you have other problems. The Cap'n
