Where on this blasted car can I pick off another nut to replace the one that just got stripped?? I'm not in the mood to go find one as some store. I believe it's a 11mm. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chair.gif) |

I believe the clutch cable also uses 7mm nuts (11mm wrench). Borrow 1 from there for today (only today!). But how did you strip that nut? Only needs 10 ft lb torque. Dont retighten before putting the valve cover back on - your valve adjustment will go away.
