The flat side is supposed to go towards the bolt head according to most other mechanics. The round side goes towards the pan because it's the part that crushes and makes the seal against the pan that has an irregular surface compared to the bolt head. I don't know who is right but more people lean this way. I've been researching this for an hour now trying to make a decision.
You are right
I was wondering the same thing. You are right
@@metapeutic Me too!
Make sense
Been doing a lot of research and yes I been seeing a lot of people saying the bubble side go towards the oil pan
Informative video. Don't think I was aware of "flat side", but do follow torque recommendations. The washers are so cheap and universal on Hondas. Thanks.
The Honda dealership near me shrink wraps the washer to the oil filter and sells them together. Which is convenient for when I'm ready to change the oil.
That is a nice service, thanks for the input!

Local Honda dealer used to sell copper o rings. They really crushed down and always took a bit of effort to remove.
Now they sell the aluminum crush washer for $6 a washer. Amazon sells a bag of 20 for the same price. Thanks Honda.
A couple of my Hondas have the torque spec at 26 lbft. Doesn't seem like much when tightening the bolt but it never leaks.
Well explained🙌🏻 I'm up for the oil change on my super four the right way
Hi Dave. I saw two other videos that showed the flat side should go against the Drain Plug head . Can you confirm?
I've been using a 14mm nylon washer I picked up from the store. I don't own a torque wrench so just go by feel, putting on the plug with as little force as I believe will not allow oil to leak. The nylon washer still looks like new 2 years later, 4 -5 oil changes. I guess I'll go ahead and splurge on the torque wrench and get new washers. I wish I could find a pack of the nylon ones but can't seem to find a big package of them so I'll go with the crush ones.
Dave thanks for sharing. I know from experience working in the aviation world the washers I’m familiar with hat that slight concave on the inner radius. It also helps sealing the radius of the bolt to the washer under the head of the bolt. If my old memory serves me correctly it’s the way they are stamped out. I always check the washers just out of habit. I hope all is well. 🇺🇸👍 Artie
Just a note. I have many Honda bike manuals and own Hondas now.
All the manuals say 22 Foot Pounds of Torque for the oil plug on all my aluminum oil pans.
Just my experience after owning many Hondas.
And 20 Foot Pounds of Torque for the oil filter.
I use them Twice, I flip them over and re-use. I have the old steel oil pans.
Thanks never knew you had to put then in a certain side up .
Thanks for your time and video, it was extremely helpful.
Drove my Acura 17 years. Never changed the gasket! Saved me maybe 8 bucks?
Yep, unless it's worn, no need to replace EVERY SINGLE TIME.
I did 33 ft lbs. on my 2013 Elantra and it had a slow leak. your thoughts?
Always useful info. Thanks
Thanks for the comment!
Good Video and Helpful 'To The Point' information. Appreciate the 'new seal' info, and the aluminum pan torque spec : 29 foot pounds. (liked and subscribed) John 3:16
Thank you sooo much for this video!👍
Great video big 🐕, I think you're the only one in America that saves old crush washers 🤭
I keep them around in case I need them for a video lol, thanks for the comment!
Gotta 07 I do every change has almost 400,000 miles runs like new
My family has a 02 Accord with 250k miles. Same compressor, transmission, engine. Some general seals and hoses/timing maintenance, but it doesn't hardly burn a drop of oil! Just putters around like a golf cart without a single light on the dash. I have a 22 Sport 2 liter turbo and it's like a Dodge charger in comparison 😂
my son had an oil change at a jiffy lube several times and they wound up ruining the drain pan and they had to rethread the drain hole. I always take mine to Honda and they only charge me $40 plus they do a multipoint inspection 😅
Thanks, Big Dog!
👍
I put the crush washer the wrong way, rounded top towards the engine, should I be worried? Ran the bike for 5 mins no leaks, but haven’t taken it out yet…
My 2021 Camry drain plug gets harder to screw only halfway in or halfway out, it never leaked! I bought it new and it only had 2 oil changes at the dealership. When I started changing the oil myself I noticed that and I ordered a drain plug from the dealer yet still doing the same thing!
Anyone knows why?
The threads in the pan could have been messed up
How easy is it to over torque to the point of damaging the threads? Last oil change I did I torqued it to my torque wrench’s maximum of 30 Nm (car spec: 40) and then used a shorter wrench (about 8in in length) to give it a little more. It wouldn’t move at all until it seemed to turn suddenly for a little less that 1/8 turn. I was not expecting such sudden rotation. I’ve heard of people saying the washer crushing can create a similar feel. How likely am I to have stripped the pan? I would be surprised myself since the wrench was rather short, the car was only jacked with the emergency jack and I was not perfectly inline with the wrench, all making it harder to apply too much force.
Hey i have an off question. For a few seconds after i crank, and after i turn off my 06 accord, there is a blinking key up top. Doesn't effect the way car runs. What does that mean
Had a question that has nothing to lead its in a video 2009 Acura TSX battery keep dying for three days every time it was all for a while so I waited till I got paid but the last day it died and I jumped it and it just cranks cranks cranks cranks has a new fuel pump new fuel injectors they said they checked the spark plugs the coil packs they check the timing has spark they said just don't know what else it would be
Are these washers for Engine or Transmission oil drain plugs???
Is 14 for washers for all hondas and does any washer do or has to be honda ? my manual doesnt say just says replace washer go size honda civic coupe 2010
Other than S2000s, Honda is pretty standardized across their vehicle line regarding engine oil changes (washers and filters). A 2010 Civic should be the standard 14mm. I usually get them from Honda dealers but aftermarket ones are usually ok.
god bless you, thanks!
I've never realized they had two different sides
My rpms on my 05 honda accord go up and down when i let off the gas what can icheck ?
Air filter and spark plugs? 05 definitely needs a tune up if it's never had one, but always start with some engine TLC basics.
Does the same one fit the ATF drain?
No. Engine oil is 14mm and ATF/CVT appears to be 18mm. Torque specs different too.
18mm for transmission. Rear differential can be 20mm or a combo of 18mm and 20mm.
sooo the washer drain plug is also called a washer! i thought they were two different things.
There's the drain plug - aka the bolt, and the drain plug gasket - aka the washer.
Actually, the washer gets installed the opposite way you said.
Flattest side against the pan, that's what's doing the sealing. But thanks for the comment.
@@BigDog50001 A crush washer for an oil drain plug should have the flat side against the bolt and the rounded side facing the oil pan. The rounded side crushes against the oil pan, which is often more irregular than a bolt. The smaller opening with the edge on it goes on the drain plug. A quick search all over the internet says this.
The purpose of the crush washer is to create a tight seal between the bolt and the surface it's being tightened against, preventing leaks. When you tighten the bolt, the crush washer compresses, creating a seal
Nice Snap On tool kit.
