Missing a nut off of one of my exhaust studs. Thought I found it at my FLAPS but wouldn't fit when I got home.... What's the correct size? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

Should be an M8. Better to get a proper nut for the application eventually. A standard nut will probably not last long.

M8, but most M8 nuts use a 13mm wrench. You need the M8 that uses a 12mm wrench. The larger ones will sometimes hit the tubing.
