An aero engineer I know maintains any spring or "shake proof" washer does no good and may do harm. New bolts, new nuts correctly tightened hold better than any spring type.
Star washers are very good for electrical connections.
I find this difficult to get used to as I've been using spring washers all my life but I think he is more likely to be correct as the CAA Inspectors are not known to be slouches.
