Bolt size?
I found a missing bolt or should I say place where a bolt goes when putting my 12v back together. its not m8 x 1.25 I tried one of those.... looking thru passengers wheel well... left side... this bolt holds a ground and a bracket for the water pipe going from thermostat around back of engine...its above PS pump... I would guess its a m10 but is it 1.25 or 1.5 thread ? I have same question about the bolt..on valve cover rear right side that also holds bracket for water pipe...i put all the bolts from the valve covers in a bag but none seem to fit now...these 2 bolts and the intake are all thats left to reassemble after gorilla glue dries on intake mounting pad overnight. Thanks
All in all doing the timing belt with its associated other belts, plugs, seals etc...was enjoyable.. it was learning experience that will go easier next time, but really wasnt difficult at all. had I done this service on my car before any other "pro's" there wouldnt be any missing bolts and anti-seize would be on them.
