I did my second oil change this weekend at 419 miles, and now I have a small puddle of clear oil under the machine.
I had reused the crush washer and torqued the drain bolt to 16 ft lbs - 192 in lbs.
The local Yamaha dealer (an hour away) didn't have a replacement crush washer so I hoped it would hold.
Have any of you guys used a copper washer on these machines instead of the crushed unit?
Any other suggestions would also be appreciated.
