Re: [ST] Oil thread time!



1) The crush washer. What size is it? Does anyone have a Yamondasaki
compatible replacement number?

The washer that you take off may be aluminium or copper. If it's copper then
heat it to cherry red, and drop it straight into cold water to anneal it,
then use it again. If it's ally, throw it.
Done this for years on cars & bikes, and must have saved, well, not very
much really.
I don't mind paying top whack for proper oil & filters etc, but getting
stuffed for the price of a washer sort of goes against the grain somehow.
