So...I had a small oil leak on my SR..looked to be from the oil feed line to the turbo (leaking at the block) so I tried to replace the beat up copper washers on the banjo bolt with some new washers from Auto Zone.

So...Next day I started the car and all of the oil appeared to have leaked out overnight from that fitting, most likely from starting the car that morning.

I went around trying to find REAL crush washers today...NOTHING...am I insane or should auto parts stores know what these are? Tried all of em...and Lowes/Home Depot. Am I missing something...?
