the "new" brass crush washer is used to seal the injector bore from the cylinder. use some anti sieze compound to hold it in place during installation. Be careful on install, dont bump that lil tip off the bottom of the injector ! Make sure you get the old crush washer out of the bore .

A dab of grease works well to hold the crush washer on also.
