What are you using for the banjo-bolt gaskets? I bought a NOS assembly when I got my car back on the road a few months back.
I included the rubber-lined washers. However, I'm having to replace the engine and those washers appear to be singlle-use (off-center distorted).
They also appear to be unobtanium. Any suggestions? I'm leaning toward copper brake line washers.
They work on steel lines to alloy calipers and get MUCH hotter than this pipe will get, at a much higher pressure.
Thanks
Chris

Thanks. My mechanic has a version, for A/C - much smaller diameter rubber/metal, for given bolt size.
I found some assortments with wider rubber/OD, but still not the overall diameter of OEM. Gonna give these a try.
