I'm having trouble identifying the items from my 2.0 Victor Reinz gasket kit.
The little copper ones are identical to the washers I used for the temp sensor bottom plate. The black gasket is a little bit smaller and thicker than the seal used for the pushrod tube small end. Is it for the distributer? The silver washer looks like it's for the bottom temp sensor, but I would be surprised if the kit included that gasket. I can't find where the larger 2 copper washers fit. |

I think the silver is for the oil drain plug. I think the black one is for the distributor, like you said. One of the big copper ones is for the oil pressure relief valve, on the bottom, not sure why there look to be 2 of those... |

Small copper pair -Taco plate. Aluminum- pressure sender I think or drain. Many engines have two pressure relief valves, but often there is only 1. Many kits also only give you one of the pressure relief rings, so you lucked out. Did you save the old ones as you went? That can provide clues like witness marks. |

If you take a close look at the black o ring, you'll see its flat on the inside. It's definitely for the diz. Really its a "d" ring.
The two larger copper washers are too small for the pressure relief valve. They look more the size of the oil drain and sump cover |

Thanks for the input.
The 2 larger copper washers are too small for the oil relief valve. I already have 2 small copper washer for the taco plate. Are these extra? I don't have a pressure sensor to fit the silver washer, but just by comparing the boss size on the case the washer seems too big. Any other ideas would be appreciated. |
