Re: [diesel_mercedes] Changed Oil...what are the 2 crush washers for?

 

Yes, drain plug. Drain plugs are cheap - I keep 4 or 5 laying around in the parts box so when one gets rounded off or drops in 8 quarts of oil, not a big deal to slap another one on. When I got one of my cars, someone did not use a washer and just tightened the plug down, with a resulting drip, drip, drip of oil (at best, he was an idiot).
