I put the smooth side against the carb body (up), and thread the main jet in against the less flat side.

So the burr side up? Mine fell out, and I put it back in burr side up.. but there's a rule to which side goes against the surface, but for whatever reason I can't remember (torched those brain cells).. I believe it's smooth side against the surface to prevent gouging..

The factory manual does not specify which way the washer goes so I assume they think it is unimportant. Either way there is not that much torque applied to the main jet when tightening as to cause a problem.
