as the description says where can you get them and what do you use. you buy the oil screen filter kit and it comes with the two gaskets and one crush ring not two.
for now I am using a neoprene washer as a gasket, I think I have read where some guys use copper washers. is that correct and if so size and where to get would be very helpful. I am trying hard to do things right to the point I bought a torque wrench that goes down to 5 lbs so I could avoid over torqueing the strainer nut. thanks in advance Rick |

These are not crush washers but they are exactly the right size and I've never had one leak. Been using them for years without a problem. |

I never could understand why when one purchases something like 10 little crush washers, why the vendor just doesn't mail them in a small padded envelope USPS First Class Mail for about $2.00, instead of a box loaded with packing material for $9.95 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif)
Actually, if you include a paper sheet of printed instruction with them, you could mail it via USPS Media Mail for about a buck (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) |

Might work OK for the drain plug, but 11ft/lbs of torque isn't gonna do diddly to make that washer seal on the sump cover. The Cap'n |
