Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) WHOOPS! Dropped Delivery Valve Washer.

[Swamp Donkey]

Putting in my 191 delivery valves in my truck tonight. Of course like a meathead I dropped a spring with three little washers. I managed to find the 2 big washers, but the extra thin one is missing in action. Can I put it back together without blowing up my pump? The #4 and #6 springs had 3 washers. The #5 ( the one I dropped will only have 2)



Common sense tells me without the washer, the spring tension will be less, but how will this effect pump life?





Will my truck just run a little rough? I am going to heading down to Piers on Wednesday... ...





HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP I need my truck tommorow and for the rest of my life... ... :{

I don't know the effect of running without the washer but firmly believe that most all mechanical devices don't come with unneeded extra parts.

A hundredth of an inch is a mile as far as an injection pump is concerned. I'd personally go see Piers before I'd drive it. 2¢
