    Dont take it personal please but IMO this happens also to cheap skates who are buying aftermarket chinese sh*t and dont want to pay 1 dollar for a good quality washer which i'm sure was annealed and well treated from factory

    I'm sure you're correct but I bet if you buy an 'expensive' washer it probably isn't annealed after stamping so annealing will get a better seal.
    Plus, just because you're paying more doesn't guarantee it's not from India or China.

    it's in the description here ​Land Rover Defender TD5 Injector Kit ERR6417 & ERR7004 x 1 | eBay

    All copper seating washers are annealed during manufacturing process making them soft and malleable to create seal when injector is fitted

    I’m cheaper still, I’m not wasting gas on annealing, reused washer asis, besides what’s the worst that’s going to happen “leak oil”.
