oil drain washer
What size is the oil drain washer and the filler on the 04 ec 200. Can one use and o'ring instead of a copper washer?

My oil drain plug (2004 EC250) has an o-ring. The filler plug has the copper crush washer.

An o-ring is much better to use on the bottom because it makes the bolt much harder to shake loose than a crush washer. Doesn't need to be tightened nearly as much as a crush washer.

Any idea what size they are meant to be. |

I buy the vitron o-ring kit (metric) at Harbor Freight. I think it's $10-$12 (often on sale for 8-9). It has 3 sets of exhaust pipe o-rings, probably 10-12 that will fit the drain plug and suspension linkage. In total maybe 2 dozen different sizes. These work great - been using them for years.

On closer examination these o-rings aren't vitron they are nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR). I have a kit in a red box (#W5203) from Performance Tool and a kit in a blue box (item #67580) from a company called STOREHOUSE. Kits contain @400 o-rings in more than 30 sizes (10-20 of each size). Sizes range from 2.8mm ID to 50mm ID.
p.s. My cell phone that takes pics quit working so I'm back to my old $10 flip phone from WalMart (it has no camera). Maybe I can find Connie's camera. |

Hi guys I'm new to the forum and not really sure how it all works yet. I'm trying to find out if anyone knows if there are any websites (uk) where I can order the oil drain bolt for a gasgas ec 300cc 2004 . Thanks in advance for any replies.
