copper washer drum brake cylinder to hose
Is there a need for a copper washer here (64 all drums) ? My rebuild kit came without...
edit: well, I found out by looking in the bag of the other drum cylinder where the copper washer was in ;-)

Those aren't spare parts; the copper washers ensure a proper seal...their 'soft' nature is why that material is used... You now have a dangerous condition....

Not a scientific method -- an exercise in logic.
Here is the syllogism; with its premises and conclusion:
1. I did a repair on my car and had extra parts,
2. I didn't die in a fiery crash,
3. Therefore the parts aren't necessary !
Perfectly logical ? Right ?
Folks, you not only want the copper washers, you want NEW (previously never compressed) washers for cripe's sake !

AND you can pick them up at your FLAPS for a couple bucks. GM didn't put them on for show. They put them on for purpose.
