Cylinder head washers

Post by R100 » Thu Sep 10, 2015 3:38 pm

Is it necessary to use crush washers on all 8 studs?
Can I use 6 good steel washers, and put crush washers on the 2 outside front studs where the oil pressure is?

Excellent - I have 4 new OEM washers. I will use them on the 4 corners.
Thanks LM.

Put them on the rotor and see if they stick.
I have a bin full of Look Similar and they were steel. ....................lm

They do stick. But they are the correct part number according to the fiche for my engine number (CP77E-1001821).
It specifies 90441-286-000 x 8.
