Getting my engine parts together.. I noticed my case bolt that goes on passenger side near push rod tubes, isnt in the best shape and it doesn't appear to be the right washer. So I need one with washer, is this bolt indeed different It does not have a nut as this is the one that threads directly into the other case half. Thanks
PET figure 111-05 shows #3 is a hex head bolt M8 x 72 N010.373.2 and the copper washer is 021.101.189 sealing ring 8,2 x 16. I don't know if there is anything special about these parts, someone more knowledgeable shoudl pipe in. I would search McMaster-Carr for the copper washer, maybe they have it but you'd probably have to buy 100 and shipping would cost more than the washers. But you could think Group Buy!
The copper washer is in every casket kit. Most people don't know what it is for. It is to seal the short center camshaft bolt since it can leak. The copper is soft and will seal the bolt. only use it once.
I too am searching for the washer. My '82 Vanagon needs one as it leaks. I tried to reuse it in vain.
the old one was black and it leaked. thats why I figured something wasn't right any body got a part # or have one I need one soon
