My 85 & 86 22re's have the washer.
I'm having a similar issue on my 86, but I have the washer.

Exactly what i saw. I called the dealers around me, of course no one had the thrust plate washer in stock. I got the fuel pump drive from a buddy off a 22r. I ground off the outer ring and ground it down to the size of the washer. They are both the same thickness aprox .080" It's fixed now. LC Eng. even sells the stupid washer. I explained my whole problem to them when i ordered the adj. cam gear and they never even mentioned i needed the washer even though their instructions say so. Makes me wonder if they know wtf they are doing. Anyway doesn't matter it's fixed now and the adj. cam gear is awesome!!

Now if i could only get it to pass NJ's emission inspection.
