Thrust washers and placement of dowels in the crank case...this is not clear. Can you describe your question in more detail. What are other words for these parts, what were you trying to do, and what did you do wrong?

Copy that paragraph and paste it into a message to the /5 Yahoogroup.

You may need to do some more explaining, but they should be able to tell you the best way to repair your engine.
