Ahh, the dreaded KILLER DOWEL PIN..... if it falls into your gearcase housing it can ruin your day and maybe over $1000 in damage. There are several pre emptive fixes available. Here is one that comes highly recommended...
it also explains the problem pretty well here.

Yes, worry.

It applies to 89-98 (some with 24v have tabbed it as well. I think.)

But the TST kit, it's an easy job.
