Default Throttle Body and EGR Bolts

Hi All,

I attempted to remove my throttle body today (2001 4.6l), unfortunately one of the bolts on the EGR Sheared off, and i dropped one of the throttle body bolts into the unknown (ie the middle of the V).

Does anyone know what size these are, as i dont have any calipers to check.

Many Thanks

Ed

M6 or M7. I have a few laying around, just to lazy to get up and look.

Pretty sure they are M6. It's been a while since I dug into mine, but as I recall, they are M6's. I'd bet on a 1mm pitch too, going off memory.

I do not think they are the same size bolts, I will check in the morning and let you know the sizes for both.
