Off topic somewhat, but where does one find replacement copper washers, my import supplier could not find the ones I need for my oil return thanks.
Nice science project. The pressure you measured is after the banjo bolt orifice. Now measure it before the orifice from the outside of the copper washer with the banjo bolt loosened.
Is 2.2 psi enough to cause a leak between those copper washers and the aluminium if not crushed? I think so.
