I am missing something.. I am missing 1/2 of a set of something... I am missing one of those tiny screws, that holdeth in my TPS..

What size is that little tiny thing?

It IS a problem.

No, nor do I believe in the Cam Fairy, the Crank Fairy, the Filter Fairy, or the Blinker Indicator Fairy.

I do believe in the Cam Gremlin, the Crank Gremlin, the Filter Gremlin, the Blinker Indicator Gremlin, and yes, the TPS Screw Gremlin.

Oops.. almost forgot about the Right Headlamp Motor Gremlin!

Many of those listed were integrated into one entity, the Electrical Gremlin. I have become quite familiar with it in the last few weeks. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/unsure.gif)

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif) I know....since you say they are little screws...
why don't you just shake your head really hard...
maybe the right size one will come out?
I'm sure there are a few loose ones in there IMHO (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/screwy.gif)

i don't think you'd be ordering anything, although it might be quick to make a ride down to the Ace Hardware for a pair of screws based not on my memory but on my ability to read the ETKA this morning...

Oh yeah, the Beast... yes..

Woe to you, oh Earth, and sea, for the Devil sends the Beast with wrath, because he knows the time is short. Let him who hath understanding reckon the number of the Beast, for it is a human number....

it's number is nine-hundred, and fourteen...

Actually Rich, I was going to buy a box of 100 in zinc for $6.04 from some place in Michigan.

Would anyone like to get in on a group buy.. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)

SEEKING 911 STEEL WHEELS AND BOLTS SOME RUST 'OK'


"bolts" and 911 wheels don't really go together - what are you after, really?

i considered getting a set of steel wheels for snows for my 911 but after this winter's experience, i'm putting the money into finishing the Subie instead...

I need steel wheels and whatever nails them to the thingys. So actually a set of 20 nuts... any of you will do.

I need some wheels to mount tires I have on, so I can do the Earwax Shea 5 bolt upgrade plan, and still drive to the store for paint crap.
