Oil drain bolt gasket
« on: 16 April 2023, 11:54:35 am »
Hi all, I'm about to change the oil on my FZ1 ABS 2012 (my first time changing the oil). The manual says I should replace the engine oil drain bolt gasket with a new one, but there is no part number and I can find it on Fowlers. Can I just use a crush washer? and what is the size?
Thanks,Bikebud.

Halfords or any motor factors will have them. 17mm as far as I can remember. Commmon enough size most Japanese cars are the same size washers. Aluminium or Copper

Yambits have the bolts/washers etc pretty cheap (about to do the same to mine)
