Topic: Crush washer for oil pan drain plug 94109-12000 heads up

I don't see why an used sparkplug washer couldn't be a good seal. On it's sparkplug it has been torqued down much less (1,4 kg-m) than it will be on the drain plug (3 - 4 kg-m).

I think spakplus, have a secondary seal...carbon... hope that wont happen in your oil pan!

 ..if it works though, use it

I will try, but you have to wait another year as I'm used to change my oil every two years or 6000 km, whatever comes first (Ohhh... the horror. I know, I know).
That's why I asked If anyone else has tried.

I could never figure why these washers (for oil drain plugs) are called "crush washers". 

Me either mate, until I bought a BMW, they use real crush washers, tubular copper washers that actually crush down when you tighten them, like our exhaust gaskets. (why don't Honda call them "crush washers"?)

CB750 oil pan plug holes will crack pretty easily too, and they'll strip out the thread, so don't "over tighten" it. Cheers, Terry.
