Hi guys,
Really daft question but struggling to find an answer.
Doing coolant flush on my '98 996, drained coolant at engine drain plug,
sealing washer is damaged, looks to be aluminium !?! Is that right or
should it have an o ring or copper washer fitted ?
Thanks, Lew

Cheers guys,
Spoke to local Porsche Indy today, originally aluminium,
he didn't have any in stock but advised to fit a copper washer from any motor factors.
20p fix......... Wish there were more of them laugh
