If I don't have the correct replacement washer I have turned is over. It doesn't get away from the crush aspect but it often reverses the deformity. Kev |

If it’s not leaking now chances are there’s a washer fitted. If there’s a washer fitted there’s a very good chance that when it’s tightened up it’ll seal again. A few times now I’ve removed sump plugs only to find the plug without a washer of any description, no leakage either. Failing that, just drill a hole in an old 2p, be reet!

I'm surprised by the lack of correct metalagy response with this question .
You need to aniell the washer if you want to re use it . Copper hardens when it's been compressed or bent . Put it on the hob (kitchen,) Allow it to glow . Pick it up with long nose pliers then drop it into cold water . Job done. This is the correct method of re using a copper washer |

look up ALU1403 it should be M14 but cannot remember the thickness.
ALU1403 LR is specified for the Freelander Much the same engine. This washer is also suited to Honda from memory. Last edited by RogerHeinz57; 30th September 2020 at 20:32.. Reason: m |

You don't have to drop the copper into cold water - you can just let it cool in the surrounding air and clean it up with a bit of Scotchbrite. |
