Hi there

I've got an inner timing case type tacho drive, and the two small, very course thread bolts that hold the cable mounting bracket on are very short. Could anyone please let me know what the thread is as I'd like some new ones?

The ones fitted are hex head too, and there's very little room for a socket or spanner to tighten them up, which adds to the problem.

Thanks
Adrian

Thank you for that. Cap heads are exactly what I need.  *smile*
