Subject:Oil Pressure Switch

Hi, All.  When I pulled the high pressure switch, I also removed the bushing
to the block.  I cleaned both  and reinstalled bushing(old w/copper washer),
then the new switch. Put on the laternator belt and tested for leaks and
seems I have one.  Will remove switch and bushing again and wanted to know
if new crush washer needed on bushing. Want this DONE. Will remove belts
again as I replaced w/new 1 hour ago and easier to reach switch.
BTW-24mm deep socket and thin 1/2 drive and switch is OUT! No bending and no
muffler probs.  Really easy with belts off.
Please advise opinions ASAP. Thx.
