    Coil Pack bolt specs?

    Does anyone know the size specs for the bolts holding the coil packs on(there's 4 per coil pack, 10mm head size)?

    I snapped one putting my coil pack back in so I need to get it out and get a new one. I may need to re-thread the hole depending on how well removal goes. lol

    i'm fairly certain those are 8mm head size,
    simply get them finger tight + 1/6 to 1/4 turn with a wrench
    they don't need to be super tight

    i can check the shop manual later tonight, but i don't think a standard torque wrench goes this low

    Thanks for the reply.

    I actually need the specs for the bolt itself, like thread pitch and diameter.

    I usually just tighten them to snug then give them a quarter turn. But this one I just kinda lost track of what I was doing and kept going until it snapped. So I need to get another one. I may also need to re-thread the hole.

    take one of the other ones to lordco or a fastener store, get them to match it. Or do it the right way and get out a thread pitch gauge and ruler lol.

    All I've ever used is 2 on opposite corners, never had a problem.
