Body Damage is Cool
My brother is doing a HG replacement on his Toy and wants to replace all the copper crush gaskets in the fuel system. NWOR sells a kit but would like to avoid 'em if possible. Anybody got part #'s he can use at local parts stores?

Call the dealer. If they are a solid copper gasket you can re-anneal them and they will be good as new. To anneal, hang them on a piece of solid wire and heat with a propane torch until they are cherry red, let cool. This will make them dead soft again and they will seal as well as new ones.
