When I was installing the HICAS Elimination Fitting I accidentally dropped the smaller of the two copper washers it came with. I thought it wouldn't be much of a problem to just use a bigger one along with some Teflon tape but it seems to be slowly leaking, I was wondering if anyone would be able to tell my what size washer it would be so I could go to a parts store and buy one.

Lol you know what happened? This weekend I went to check to see how much had leaked out only to see the washer that I lost peeking out of the dirt crusty hole it had fallen into. I shoved my hand in there and after a bit of wriggling was finally able to get it out. Installed it Monday and since then everything seems to be great. Fixed 2 leaks and the car seems to idle at 1000 or less now too. Car is running super smooth so far
