Does the "washer" on the drain plug wear out ?? The plug on my current buggy (5.4) is seeping and I'm afraid to torque it down any tighter  . Thanks

Yes, they can. It’s not very common. Of all the vehicle I’ve owned over the years, I have only replaced one, and that was one of those ‘plastic’ ones that GM used years ago. Never have had a copper one fail(yet). ------------- I tried to follow the science, but it was not there. I then followed the money, and that’s where I found the science. |

Google is your friend..... Most folks use a crush washer and replace it every oil change. ------------- Don't confuse my personality with my attitude. My personality is who I am. My attitude depends on who you are. |

One of the vehicles I own, if I buy the filter at the dealer (rarely, but happens), it comes with a new washer taped to the filter? I wonder why? 
C'mon 10,000!!!! Can't wait. Palms getting sweaty!

I think the cooper will stretch over many times of use. I would replace every so often. ------------- On the farm: Agco Allis 9695, 7060, 7010, R66, Farmall H, and Farmall F20 (Great Grandpa's) |

Yeah, learn how to read, exactly, BECAUSE A DRAIN PLUG WASHER COMES TAPED TO THE FILTER GENIUS! As in, you put a new washer on when changing the oil. Is that hurtful and confusing for you?

This buggy has had a 195,000 miles worth of oil changes BTW  Why do you even bother with changing the oil. At that mileage on a 5.4 you shouldn't have to. Just keep pouring new in.

SO GASSY.... HOW OFTEN do you change the filter, and NOT DRAIN THE OIL PAN ??? That was the COMMENT... A FILTER and pan plug GASKET would be a KIT !

My god I don’t know if you’re more dense, more argumentative, or more stubborn. One more time. I’m not talking about the filter gasket. The GASKET is in the groove in the gasket like any other filter you would buy from anywhere on planet EARTH. A WASHER, FOR THE DRAIN PLUG., is taped to the top of the filter. THATS WHY I MENTIONED IT!!! Comprende??? |

 Why oh why, do we have stay inside your lines ? I guess you already knew the answer you wanted. For some reason your condition * ( what ever is making you you ) gets me to laughing so I will keep reading. But will try to not reply as I might have the wrong answer, and make you see something you did not know you where looking for.* Steve (and many more ) I think you know what I did not say.
