Change drain plug and washer or just the washer?
When you change your oil is it necessary to change both the plug and washer or just the washer? Also would a Honda dealer carry the washer for a 00 LS (B18B)? Knowing some of their stuff is proprietary.

just the washer (every once in a while is fine). replace the bolt if for some odd reason the bolt threads are messed up.

just ask for a civic crusher. some dealers give them for free, some charge 30-40 cents or so.

I'm sure most all Hondas use the same oil drain bolt (don't see why they wouldn't). I used to buy OEM Honda filters from a Honda dealer and they always gave me a drain bolt washer along with it.

just the washer needs to be changed every oil change.. u may wanna invest in one of those magnetic drain bolts otherwise.
