The extra washer is a simple metal washer, fairly thick
but nowhere near 1/4".

But what you're going through seems like what I experienced
before I added the washer.

Not fiber, not lockwasher.

If you order the newest rear mounts you'll see, it's in the
package.

One other thing we noticed and I forgot to mention.When the motor was bolted down,front and rear,we could rotate the fiber washer.Shouldnt the washer be tight between the ears?
