I splurged and bought 10 washers for $10 from the dealer.
Penny wise and Pound foolish can cost you a lot in the end.....

Thats not pencewise - thats a ripoff. Its a goat-mule sacrifical drain plug washer not even remotely high tech. Boy, you americas throw your money away like its been given too you by rich daddy! Drive up coffe for three euro a cup and complain about gas cost. Very Hilarious! I'll save the buck and buy the next better grade OIL FILTER or Euro Oil where it may do something good for the motor. If you dig through garbage for food and cloth 1/2 your life you will not be so cavalier about throwing money away. So Brass washer, hot plunged in zinc or stannum will do great for "crush washer" So is it 14mm or 12 mm DIA?

Yeah, I like the toyota washer, Good for 3 uses at least, but a buck? I am still on the original after 4 OC and time for new, We used spark plug washers in europe but no parts guy seems to carry anymore. Maybe with advent of $$$ iridium-tip sprak plug the replacement washer will come back. On the spark plug you shouls ALWAYS putting on the new crush-washer if you pull a plug. I see many Subaru's with toasted heads from backed out plugs and reused washers.
back into the oil pan = Guys, just do not substitute with a zinc-dipped steel in the vintertyme - it will dissapear (rusting) if you getting the salz-wasser on it!
