2004 XC70 - Banjo Bolt Crush washer width

[rmdavis61410]

Hi -

Of course I managed to lose the crush washers for my PVC Banjo bolts.
I have a couple of other crush washers which have the same ID but are a bit wider in the ring - about 3 mm or so.

Are these safe to use with PVC system - particularly with the banjo bolt which screws in to the intake manifold?

TIA

I just looked to see if I kept the old ones and I didn't from my PCV job. I would look to the sealing surface on the coolant pipe and measure that size, then just make sure that a little extra on the outside won't get in the way of anything. I don't think it will be a problem. Im just thinking that the machined surface on the block or manifold may have a ridge outside the machined area that may be an issue if the copper washer is too big on the outside. If it fits it should be okay, seems to me those washers were pretty generic.

they're cheap, order new ones from fcp.
