So I replaced my (78) oil cooler and had new oil lines made. In the process of installing it I noticed that it had a crack where the fitting goes(on oil cooler). So I welded it and now I need 2 new crush washers . I have been calling all my local parts stores and no one carry's these. Is this a Mazda Only item? Any one have any recommendations where I can get them? Thanks

 

dealership.... i think its 9956-21-800?

be really careful tightening the fittings, its really easy to split the cooler

 

I got them from Mazdatrix... although they gave me a little extra.. yet I still had to pay for all of them. Meh it works.

 

i used copper ones from a parts store since no one had the aluminium ones like they dont exsist

 

Take one to Nappa, and they will dig around and find one for you. Works everytime (almost)...

 

I use Earl's Plumbing Dowty Seals. The shop recommends them for our oil cooler application.
