Re: [DMCForum] One nit-picky question



Well if that little washer fell in to the oil pan I would be very
concerned.
It might never be an issue but one day a small bump might move it enough
to
kill your engine.

As far as the tensioner goes it probably isnt that big a problem, but it
was
there for a reason.
