    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

where do the six copper head washers go my microfiche shows different from my service manual.
And the two 6mm head bolts on the ends of the head are there some sort of rubber washers on them.
my stock factory bolts had them but theres nothing on the microfiche or the service manual that shows any.

Two at the rear cam chain tunnel and the four outside the valve cover.
The rubber washers go on the very outside of the valve over right above the rectangular cam covers.
 
sorry
I didnt get what you were saying about where the six copper ones go.

Not true! All the copper washers go INSIDE the valve cover. The 4 zinc plated steel washers go outside the valve cover. The 4, not 2, rubber coated steel, 6mm washers go on the 4 screws that do down into the top of the valve cover on the outside on both ends.
