| there m8 x 60 on the sj. Metric fine part threaded. Standard thread would probably suffice though. | |

| Re tap it.
You don't have to use a double handed tap wrench if the thread is already started. You can just use a spanner on the square of the tap.

| What size bolts did you get? And What pitch thread? I thought they bolted through the starter and the bell housing and a nut on the other side. They Will probably be metric fine. Check the thread of the old bolt against a new one. If the threads Dont line up there obviously different. | |

m8 x 60's m8, i got fine tread they just didnt grab the tread at all so i tried normal bolts they grabbed but wouldnt tighten, the starter has a nut and bolt on the top but a treaded bar on the bottom, thats whats loose, im going to try re tapping it and using locktite aswell, just hope it works | |
