Curious if anyone knows the millimetre size of the copper crush washers on the fuel line to injector coupling (and return line too if different)? The engine is a 3GM30 but same injectors as 1GM10 and 2GM20 (and probably most engines).
I'm asking because I'm totally frustrated trying to get one from the Yanmar dealers I called. Of the four, three said "I would have to look it up" but never offered to do so. I asked and two said they couldn't and one took my phone number but never called back. One place asked me the millimetre size and said they have several size in stock - but they were unable to look up the size I needed. I figure if I knew the size, these guys might have what I need.
I really don't want to pull one from the engine and drive all over the place hoping someone has the proper size. Actually, if I had one in hand I'd go to automotive or motorcycle service places first.
I'm hoping it's not like this with all parts for this engine.
Thanks,
Chris
PS I read about re-annealing the old washers on another thread - sounds like a good "fall back" plan.
