Default CPS Bolt size

So the basketcase I bought was not only missing the CPS, but the bolts holding it in. Anyone know what size they are so I don't have to but a bunch and guess at it?

Buy OEM. The thread size is something standard (I don't recall what,) but they're shoulder screws - and that shoulder is really important for properly locating the TPS.

You're not going to find them easily in the aftermarket, not without a detailed set of measurements. Even then, your best first stop would be a dedicated fastener or industrial supply house, and that's hit-or-miss at best.

Go to the JY and pull the bolts, probably be the easiest to get the best ones.

I'm sure you can - they were used through the production life of the 6-242 (1987-2006.) Givvus a part number if/when you go, would you please? May help the next guy...
