Subject:oil drain plug sealing rings?
From:Karl F. Bloss

I seem to remember getting some copper crush sealing rings with some oil
filters a while back, but they're not in the latest batch I got.  Are
these sold separately or only with certain brand filters?  Get 'em at the
FLAPS?

I used these on my drain plug and have had to reuse the one I've had for
the last 3-4 oil changes.  As expected, it's not sealing as well any more
and the van has a slow leak from the drain plug.
