Question Oil Drain Plug Washer...

According to the computer this part is "not required" and the dealer had no supplied part number for it.

Anyone know if it is actually "NOT" needed? Mines pretty worn out and I'd hate to have the plug back out on me and fall out on the road or something... I am using a superplug and haven't had any troubles yet... Maybe just put a little loctite on the threads?

Any thoughts? Suggestions?


Tony

I don't think it will back out ever, if you torque it to spec.
