place your bets

okie doke.
here's a question that relates to my planning of any upcoming procedure, as well as what could have possibly gone wrong during my head re-install:

does anybody remember exactly what that washer looks like? (part #1860520152 'spacer washer', for those of you viewing from the future).

if it looks like figure 1 or 2, i don't see that flipping the washer will change anything.
if it looks like figure 3, it will look like figure 4 when flipped. (not 180º out as show in this post). (likewise, if it looks like figure 4 (or any variation thereof), it will look like #3 when flipped).

make sense?
change anything?
for some reason, i vaguely recall asking myself during re-install "does it make any difference which way i install this washer?" and then i said to myself "self, no, it does not."





also, JT, what'd you mean (when refering to the rocker arms) by:
