Yes, mine had the PB washers and the problem returned after only 5k or so miles and a number of years but as Matt says, it may well have been a bad crank on mine - I didn't see the rebuild process as it happened before I bought it.
There was a huge amount of movement on my crank, you really didn't need a run out gauge to see it, but that said - the crank remains in place & hasn't moved any further in the 9 months since I sold it and it is still getting occasional use. It has not started eating the inside of the engine and maybe this is the crank's 'new position' and the washers are holding & not allowing it to move any further? It can be difficult to measure the crank movement accurately so I would definitely seek second and third opinions before satisfying yourself that everything is ok.
