That's a new stock piece...I have one, and a micrometer, sitting on my desk. That's the best I can do to help.

Oh, and each and every time I have changed the oil in any of my cars, I've replaced the gasket. Compulsive, but worth the couple extra cents for the peace of mind, and keeping oil off my garage floor.

Thanks a lot

I have optional temp gauge and the sensor is connected to the drain plug. I hope they are the same size.

They are. Did an oil change on a customer's MR with the temp sensor plug and the same gasket worked.

I run into the part store at 8:59PM and this guy sold me the crush washer for $2. I know I got ripped off and I don't even know if it's gonna fit. Its OD's like 26mm and ID's 14mm.

Let's see if it works.

I have bought copper 14mm washers at Advanced Auto and Napa; they are $1 ea or less. They are NOT 2.5mm thick though, more like 1mm. Works for me.

Get the ring for free from the dealer when you get a filter, my local dealer gives me free filters sometimes.

The crushring is absolutely necessary to keep it from loosening off at the rated torque value
