Did the oil yesterday.

There was no washer or oring on the sump plug. What size oring goes there?

Wasnt leaking, bit hard to undo though, used a copper washer instead.

Same for the frame/course filter. No washers, done up extra tight. What should be here, metal washer or rubber washer?? Any idea on sizes?

hi mate , i drained the frame oil via the banjo at the bottom of the frame tube,,banjos always need a copper washer,,top and bottom,,the sum plug bolt will need one as well as this helps it to seal and stops it from seizing,

Hmm none present when I pulled the frame tube pipe.

Just done up extra tight.

Does anyone know the size?

Otherwise I'll ring up grahams.
