Man, a period or comma in there somewhere would have made that a lot easier to read...I call it a crush washer because it resembles the crush washers we use on the aircraft...It actually doesn't "crush" so much as "conforms" to the surfaces it's tightened against...If I remember correctly you need 2, a small internal copper washer, and the larger copper external washer...as far as substituting a banjo bolt or what-not, I dunno- I myself wouldn't do it, so I don't know what size/ thread pitch, etc... you would need.

careful kevin, there is a guy going around screaming bloody murder about how removing the PD will blow your engine with random lean spots caused by increased bs

Can crush washers be reused ? If not, can you heat them up with a torch so that they regain their "softness" and abitlity to seal ?

I used Mr. Lander's directions from his webpage and I'm glad I did.
The screw that goes in the center of the PD was laying in the plastic cover.

The only difference is some hesitation, but I would take that over an engine fire any day.

This is not what causes the leak.
