Thanks. My only existing plug is on my car. I hate to lose all my fresh oil. I did try to anneal the existing washer without much success. That's why I am going to try to do a quick switch with my finger in the dike so to speak.

25/32" ID, 1-3/32 OD, .06 thick. Take your plug down to the hardware store.

I think it's 3/4" ID (hopefully, someone can un/confirm).

Or, you can just anneal the one you have: heat it to 'cherry red' with a propane torch and let cool. Will seal as good as new.

Can someone give me the dimensions for the copper washer used to seal the oil drain plug on BN7? I need a new one and don't have time to order from Moss.
I assume I can get one of the proper size locally.

Thanks,

Ron Fine
