are installed in the correct position when
assembling an engine. Failure to install the thrust
washer properly will result in rapid wear of the
area where the crankshaft contacts the thrust
washer.

10. Position the lower thrust washer sections on
the center bearing cap (aluminum-faced or
bronze-faced side with oil reservoir grooves
and tip-face reliefs toward crankshaft) and
install the cap (Figure 326). Torque the
capscrews to specification, 210 lb-ft
(285 N폷m), using torque wrench J 24407, or
equivalent.
Thrust washers are steel backed with either an
aluminum facing or bronze facing, depending on
the date of production. The side with the
aluminum- or bronze-facing material has oil
reservoir grooves cut into the facing material as
well as tip reliefs.
