Hey AK,

I noticed you used a copper crushable washer. I also noticed that the magnetic drain plug came with 2 different sized washers in the package. I assume you didn't use those for anything?

Thanks

Just finished my first oil change at 3000 mi. Used my Race Ramps and installed a magnetic drain plug. I've done a lot of oil changes but this thread was very informative and I learned a lot. The oil change went great and there were no surprises thanks to everyone here especially AK...thanks!

I went with Redline oil and the Pure One oil filter. My Z is noticeably quieter and very smooth.
