>Robert Long Asked - Is there a general rule for using a locking washer vs
flat washer vs no washer? Specifically, What should I use on exhaust
manifold studs, and carb to intake manifold studs? This is actually for my
260Z, I'm replacing the flat-top SUs with some real nice round-top SUs, and
desmogging at the same time.
Robert, always use a new split lock washer. Use a flat under the split where
the surface is aluminum. Don't lose the thick "Bridge" washers that tighten
both manifolds.
