While staring (and dreaming) at the engine compartment of the TR6 this
weekend, I noticed that the ignition coil was held on (?) by two bolts
that did not go entirely into the holes they were designed to go into.
The heads of the bolts were about 1/2" away from being torqued
completed down. The bolts appeared much newer that the surrounding
hardware and I assume the DPO put new ones in there that weren't the
correct size or length; maybe even screwed up the threads. The coil is
just blowin'in the breeze!
Does anyone out there know what the size (including length and thread
count) of these two bolts should be? If the threads are 'screwed up',
is it just a matter of re-tapping the threads?
As always folks, thank A BUNCH!
