Chris`I Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 Chaps, I was cleaning my TB last night with some TB cleaner from Halfrauds when I broke a bolt Its the one that holds the intake tube to the engine just by the strut and engine cover. I managed to sheer it off when tightening it (not even tight!). Managed to get the thread part out by uncrewing it from below using a pair of pliers. Now need to replace it if anyone has one? I managed to find a random machine screw with the same thread, so its heald good and proper at the moment but obviously doesnt match the other bolts. Fortunately the TB cleaner did its stuff and my random stall on turn over is gone Starts sweet as a nut now. Cant beleive it was such a simple fix after thinking it was the popchargers fault. Quote
R35LEE Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 Hi Chris, Send me a pic of the broken bolt to my mobile. I will try and post it off tonight if not tomrrow pal. Best regards, Lee - Quote
Chris`I Posted March 12, 2009 Author Posted March 12, 2009 Cheers Lee, will get a pick when I get home. No rush, I have a decent machine bolt in there atm, just looks odd being bright and shiney Quote
