Of course, the dealer should have these, but a well-assorted FLAPS should too, as many cars uses copper rings on the drain plugs. When I change the oil, I usually flips the ring around, if I don't have any new ring to put on. I also remember the oil strainer gasket kits for air-coolers from VW used to come with six small copper rings, and one large in addition to the strainer and cover gaskets, of course. PerL 88 Syncro |
