Freakin fuel leak... help

[gsr916]

ok ya so i go to change my fuel filter and to make a long story short, i have two brand new fuel filters (not oem, im gonna get an oem one from the dealer, i just cant today) but so i had to put the old one back on and now i cant get it to seal, there is a small fuel leak out of the top from that banjo bolt. In the manual it says to replace the two crush washers so i jacked the ones from the two new filters i had and it still wouldnt seal i tried hella times. The only difference in the way it was before and the way it is now is that now it has copper crush washers and before it had aluminum. now i didnt think that made a difference... but i know fuel has a very low viscosity and can get through pretty much any crack, so are aluminum crush washers the way to go? or is there any other secret wtf am i doin wrong ahhhhh

just an update... fuck stores like autozone and kragen those stores blow. only go there for oil or car soap. If your changing ur fuel filter, only get an OEM one with ***aluminum crush washers*** the copper ones that come with other filters besides OEM are garbage and you will run into the same problem as i did. aluminum is about half as hard as copper!
