I am installing a Cycle Electric 12 volt low amp generator on my 61 pan. My old generator did not have a washer between the drive gear and the nut, In my manual it shows a small washer about the diameter of the drive gear but many pictures I've seen show a much larger washer. Does it make any difference? Thanks in advance for any help.

Re: generator
The small washer is correct for Big Twins, the large washer is part of the crankcase breather system on Sportsters.
