Hi,

Sorry new one on me, seen the opposite, the bolt holes become worn and need thick washers welding onto the frame.

Cheers John

Never ran into the problem, however knowing the way of the state of affairs at the time I'm not surprised. Yellow TCT built in early 1979 has a combination of old style engine accessory parts and new style engine parts ie, new style emissions and old style air pump odd size holes and bolts doesn't seem out of place.

Can't remember the size but when I stripped mine I ordered new nyloc nuts from the parts standard list of one of the suppliers and they fitted OK so it must be standard.
