New thread? Really?

The recommended procedure calls for a new crush washer. Many have re-used the existing washer or have used a flat copper washer without ill effects.

Thanks, I wish the parts personal would have informed me when I bought the filter and oil about the washer....oh well.

Just go down to the nearest decent parts dealer and get a copper washer to fit the drain bolt. Re-usable again & again....in fact, get three, two for the rear drive unit.

You're planning a regional ride for a washer?

I used to ride thirty miles just for a decent cup of coffee.....sounds like a worthy cause to me.

Next thread, how to pour oil.

I've used the same crush washer for 44,000 miles and it still doesn't leak! And no, It's not because I only changed my engine oil one time!
