      This is me with car parts. Spend 2 more euros to save 3 in shipping? Welp, I guess I’m getting drained plug washers for my next 4 oil changes…

          Meh, washers rarely need replacing anyway.

          Grew up in a shop, did tons of oil changes, driven half a dozen cars over a million miles, replaced one or two drain plugs, but never just a washer.

            I mean I either get them both in a kit or just a washer, but after multiple peaks, I’ve learned it’s best to at least replace the washer because probably none of the last 10 owners did.

            Current car’s plug is a 21 or 24 millimeter thread, pretty hard to screw up the plug lol
