I miss those days seeing Joe and Leo. I started having them cut my hair in the late 1960s. They were originally located around the corner on Francis Lewis Blvd. There were always some of their countrymen getting their haircut and Leo and Joe would be talking to them in Italian. I’ll bet our paths crossed in there at one point.

[@hester781]

One of my favorite automotive teachers/ mentors taught me to anneal copper crush washers when replacing them on banjo style fittings. His theory was that you will be able to put less stress on the threads when threading especially into a softer material, but that was only part one of the trick. Part two was once you had a annealed the copper washers you would then tighten the bolt just about tight then give the bolt a firm whack straight down with a brass hammer and that would “seat” the washer, and you would usually get another quarter turn out of the bolt to finish tightening. I know this comment is hard to follow, but hopefully I didn’t botch up the explanation to bad

I do my own service and repairs on my vehicles. I've owned 2 Toyota's bought them new and put over 300,000 miles on them and I changed the oil every 5,000 miles use Mobil 1 and I never replaced the crush washer and had no leaks.

I've found that annealing brass shell cases makes them easier to drill and cut when modifying them into ferrules for my projects.

[@rawbacon]

I just put the drain plug back on without changing the washer, never been a problem. I've had a lock like the Master on the barn door so long the rubber deteriorated and fell off, I replaced it with a rubber something I found in my stockpile that fit last year.

[@toolrestoration]

Well I'm only 9 years younger than you John and here in the UK those copper washers used to always come with the new oil filter... Until about 15 years back when they saw an opening to make more profit by selling them separately . Bugger them and their profit , I used a bit of PTFE tape on the sump bolt... Never let me down !

[@madamecampsalot6384]

I changed the oil on my Honda for 13 years and over 200,000 miles. Never changed the plug or washer, never had a leak from the plug. Then I sold it! Don't know what that means, or if it would fly today but there you go. Those flags were beautiful!

[@andyc972]

Thanks John, that's really interesting information about the crush/sealing washers, by coincidence I recently bought a mixed pack of 150 copper sealing washers very reasonably on clearance, without really knowing their application, so the guidance is much appreciated, especially the tip about annealing them, I just knew they would come in handy ! 😉 I've only ever drained lawnmower engines and those had the 3/8 square drive recess, but the plugs are like grub screws so avoid the issue caused by having a flanged head engaging with the tank ! When I first started servicing my mowers I read about and obtained one of the old style "dog bone" drain plug wrenches with all the different sizes only to be told subsequently that I could simply use a 3/8 in drive ! I used to go to the Italian barber in my home town back in the late 70s Joe & Tino were real characters !

[@chriscapobianco9763]

most of the time In my experience working on BMW motorcycles the aluminum crush washers are used to seal oil and the copper are used on brake lines, Great discussion!!!!

[@paulsworkshop4179]

Great looking lock! I dealt with the crush washer thing just recently. As you know I bought that old 2004 Grand Marquis in the fall. I did my first Oil change and saw it had a crush washer. Long story short, I finally reached down a teflon washer. Generally, I reuse them with no issues.

[@GuntersGarage]

That is really interesting about annealing the copper crush washers! I never thought about it. It is pretty amazing how soft it makes copper when annealed. Ive dont it making a copper rose from water pipe scraps. The copper work hardens really quick too.

[@alexstools]

I think the garage striped out my drain plug with an oil change, it kept leaking afterwards. They say they've fixed it, but I'm under the impression of seeing a blob of some sort of sealant there. I try not to think about it, it will keep me up. Let's say ignorance is bliss... Annealing sounds like a great idea for my older cars though.

[@ScoutCrafter]

Alex here in NY a quick oil change place known as Jiffy Lube was notorious for stripping out oil plugs! 😂👍

[@terryrogers1025]

Washer changes, tomato /tamoto- potato/ patato, inspect the part, if it looks and feels good ( the feeling in the touch of a part will tell more than sight ever can) and it wasn’t causing problems, I’m talking about the oil pan case, before, I reuse it, hand wrench tight, not ratchet/ socket or impact drivers to tighten. IThe short version is “common sense dictates, just my thoughts anyway. Thanks for the video, great show today, BTW, nice tip on the softening of copper washers.

And as for AC, yes it can be tough at times, but what I noticed a long time ago is that you can never really escape the heat and humidity, so I decided to do what our species has been doing for all of the past 3 million (or more) years: Acclimate as best as possible, and just put up with the temporary discomfort.

[@57WillysCJ]

Annealing makes sense although I have never done it. If you have banjo bolts on yoer brake calipers it uses the copper ones and I have reused them. A bit of common sense when you look at it. Is it deformed or off in any way, then use a new one. You get new ones with spark plugs but we reused old ones all the time when a set didn't last forever. No problems. As to what side, it's a crush washer. If it was a problem then it wouldn't seal. Never made a difference. The thing I remember about air conditioners over the door the steady drip of water. It did make you go faster to avoid drips on your head. One thing I do in the heat is stay out of air conditioning if I am going to be out in the heat. I learned that in Arizona, I could handle the heat better if I had to be out in it by not being in air conditioning. I would shut it off in the vehicle before going on a hike or working in the heat. When I first got out there people asked how I could stand the heat. Most of the time it wasn't any worse than stacking hay in a barn. That said Phoenix in July and August was a different story.

I've done more oil changes than I can count on my cars over the years and never used crush washers (and had no leaks) until I bought a 1976 BMW. Copper crush washers were called for on that car. That was my introduction to crush washers and they seemed like a good idea. Never leaked. Plastic oil pans and recommendations to replace drain plugs with each oil change seem over the top to me. Guess I'm a traditionalist.

I'll admit it! On oil pan plugs i reuse them! ;) On the banjo style fittings I use new ones, specifically on brake lines. I've never annealed them before, though it seems to make sense. But then again I've never had one fail, so if im doing it wrong, im ok with it. ;)

I also love the Master 17 and I have collected 3 vintage models over the years. It is no longer produced by Master anymore and the reason I was given by a company representative I spoke with at a hardware show was that the shackle of the lock was so thick that it would not fit many or most gate, toolbox or door hasps. It seems a bit strange to me since I use one of my 17s on my toolbox but that is what I was told. Master apparently was selling fewer each year and think it was cut from their line about 4 or so years ago. It’s a great lock with great proportions as you mentioned. It’s essentially a No. 5 but with 5 pins in the core and a larger shackle.

[@americansewingmachineresto1545]

Hi John, one of the things about Chesapeake, VA is that the air quality is good. I had to laugh with your Italian imitation. The barber shop picture is almost the same as one that I went to. His name was Patsy. Same AC, same accent. After we moved, I went to Ralph and Augie’s. Same accents but a little more modern chairs. Patsy’s were the same as your picture. Interesting description about the crush washer. We learned about your description in my Jig and Die design class. When punched out, there is 1/3 fracture, 2/3 sheer. The rounded side is the top 1/3 fracture where you start to compress the metal which rounds it off a bit until the metal starts to fracture. Then the die continues to sheer off the rest of the metal and leaves a slight burr from the fracture. Bending a paper clip until it brakes is another example of work hardening. Copper is easy to anneal. To harden steel, it needs carbon ( like in carbon steel). As copper has no carbon it anneals. Metallurgy 101. We actually hardened steel specimens and sectioned it into disks and polished the surface. We then put it under special microscopes with Polaroid cameras and took pictures of the steel grain structure. Different heating temps transformed the steel into different grain structures with different hardness and wear properties. We also took plain steel and heated it with carbonized material around it. The carbon would get infused into the steel and would garden the outside while keeping the core soft for a much less brittle part. Process was called case hardening. Can’t believe I still remember all of this from 45 years ago. Great lick clean up. Yes, hot as hell this weekend, with heat index 105-110. Did a very little out in the yard then came in and watched a movie on Amazon from the 1940’s. It was a WWII submarine classic. Run Silent, Run Deep. Another great video. Best Regards, John

[@JohnDaker_singer]

In reference to the crush washers, most modern oil pans made within the last 20 years, but before these crazy crush washers, had a rubber O-ring. The O-ring prevented leaks and made it unnecessary to use an impact wrench, as many of these oil places do, to tighten the drain plug. Isn’t it funny that with all of our modern technology and all of the innovations, we’re still struggling with leaking oil pans.

My hyundai has the crush washer so that was new for me learning, but they always came with the oil filter, along with new O-rings for the filter cover since they replaced the canister with the cartridge. I do miss the days of simplicity, seems like the kore we go the cheaper things are made yet the cost remains the same if not higher than previously.

One plug gets the large copper washer, two get this kind, one this, etc. I remember having to buy a large crush washer for the Honda V6 transmission fill plug - I think Honda used to get $6 EACH. SIX DOLLARS! I started re-filling through the dipstick tube. Anyway, just had to chime in for once. Keep up the great videos. One of these days I am going to make it up there for a tool meet!

On my semi tractor the oil pan is also plastic got cracked a few times that's why when I bought my pickup I take to the dealership to change oil they break it they bought it plus the cost is about the same if I did it myself

I once worked with a guy that had a amazing looking hammer titanium with a unique grip. He stacked copper crush washers then leather over and over. I asked him where he got the idea and he said a old man and his easwing hammer that was repaired over the years with penny's and leather. Maybe one day with arealled crush washers I'll try it or you?

those plastic oil pans Ford F100 uses shocked me , what were they thinking.

[@ScoutCrafter]

On a pickup no less! What’s going on?!? 🫣😂👍

[@billlink1726]

I purchased a drain plug with a magnetic tip for my new Subaru. I want to see if it catches anything.

[@ScoutCrafter]

Bill- those are supposed to be very good. There’s always some metal in our pans. 😃👍

Ben was great!!!

@ScoutCrafter , he did several John Wayne movies that were really good and he was in The Desperate Trail with Tom Selleck and Sam Elliot

[@archived_turkeys6487]

oil pan washers - make your own from cardboard (cheerios box). Laugh at the dealership price and worries about orientation. a simple gasket punch helps.

no annealing required

Mr Crafter, once restored did you rub off the security number on that padlock as you suggested ? lol, Just kidding, nice resto !

Question: Nothing to do with this video. With your 50/50 mix of acetone and ATM fluid, do you use a plastic spray bottle. If so have you had trouble with the acetone melting the plastic bottle? Also what is the other mix you have for rust prevention. Sorry for putting this in the comment section but I didn’t know how to contact you any other way. Thanks, Bob

[@ScoutCrafter]

Hi Bob! The only thing you have to make sure is you use a chemical resistant spray bottle- I think it’s Polyurethane. Also only fill the bottle half way. I use the ZEP ones- www.amazon.com/Zep-Professional-Sprayer-Bottle-HDPRO36/dp/B01LXTNPFS/ref=mp_s_a_1_7?crid=1ZYU0D0FR51WG&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.W6jZwBIirZYv9r3POxpUERD68dQWsYE43_zlRO5RPqL7mfAWP_EqjYl6VjA9p1RYiaVfW_IHRY415LW2-qoWQAavQRcE9dfErY8hEHXab0iFsB8Rq0Z8dY5g-UMk5Np2ZVSJqCIzvm12Bd3CRFK_M2NG4uKi7Ds-ThLB2R9jnICKFwUPrNPL6GYEX2b6QOd7ouxC7XlewhHNO57DQZpI_Q.1Yf8eQn0LQWUMzkqVgg6s40LQoTaby1qV6_QjmXhatw&dib_tag=se&keywords=spray+bottles+for+cleaning&qid=1720481642&sprefix=spray+bottl%2Caps%2C100&sr=8-7

Hey, Scoutcrafter John, I have about 2,000 free movies with no ads of all types to watch on 28 channels, including two western channels. But I can't put the link here because it's a KZbin competitor and they'll delete this message if I do. I can send it to you by email if I know where to send it. I know it's "bicycle guy" or something like that.
