i managed to ####ing lose the stupid ass tiny little crushwasher that goes between the probe and the lock nut for my greddy.

can i get something to substitute nearby? will this bi*** work without it?

If you knew what size the crushwasher was you could buy one from anywhere. If I wasn't at work I'd go pull my probe out and see.

I wouldn't run w/o it becasue it will proabbly leak.

Well you shouldn't be at a constant 900C and you can tune not to even get close to 900c

It won't be 900c on the outside of the manifold.

I used a brass fitting it does not melt

however it seem to expand different rate as the probe (stainless steel)
and the probe keeps popping out

Not a good solution at all. I switch to stainless now. If you must use brass be sure to tighten it alot so it cuts into the probe properly.
