Anyone have their Bentley manual handy? I need to get another thermostat housing bolt, but left the original at the house when I left for the office.

I think they are 5/16 unf x 1 1/4 but was hoping someone may have the specs at hand and save me a trip home.

Thanks all, w
 
They are 5/16" but I don't remember the exact length.

Where are you in MA? I'm in Seekonk.
 
Paul, thanks, it's Wayne w/ the Magenta TR6, we've met at the MOT's Day of Triumph a few times...hope all is well, car looks great!

I am in Hopkinton.

wings,

There are two different sized screws/bolts for the thermostat cover.

1 is a Set Screw 5/16" X 1"
1 is a Bolt 5/16" X 1 3/4"

Cheers,

Thank you M P Lourd. Over to the auto store for lunch and I'm all set for some cooling system work over the weekend. W
 
OK, I remember you!! I just couldn't associate any proper name with your "wings&wheels" forum name. With our car(s) colors, it's hard to miss either of us. Glad to see you here and I look forward to seeing you at the next DOT.
