I heard a "clicking" exhaust-like noise under the hood, and sure enough, one of my exhaust manifold gasket nuts is gone! I tried three different flanged hex nuts (all 5/16") but each one binds as if the threading isn't right. Any ideas how to find out specifically what the size/threading is on these? Are they ultra-fine threading? Thanks!   Will Cupp (W_cupp) Member Username: W_cupp Post Number: 132 Registered: 07-2003 Posted on Sunday, November 02, 2003 - 01:36 pm:    Call rovers north and they can mail you the right ones. www.roversnorth.com   Brent Fox (Bfox) Member Username: Bfox Post Number: 122 Registered: 10-2002 Posted on Sunday, November 02, 2003 - 02:02 pm:    If I remember right they are M8-1.25 nuts.   Brian Hull (Troutdale2) New Member Username: Troutdale2 Post Number: 5 Registered: 06-2003 Posted on Sunday, November 02, 2003 - 07:34 pm:    Brent, your memory is excellent! The M8-1.25s worked like a charm! Thanks!
