<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (azngoose @ Jan 11 2010, 04:31 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>. . . what exactly is the oil plug gasket? LOL yeah noob question but I'm sure it's not the washer you put on the plug before putting the plug back on lol so I'd like to know what that is.</div>
The drain bolt in the oil pan needs a seal better than the threads in the oil pan. The OEM seal is a crushable metal washer, and it should be replaced every time it is removed (but most of us have reused them repeatedly without immediate failure). Plastic ones are also available.
