Gentlemen,

In rebuilding my firewall, I have reached the reserve petrol switch/valve. 
Thanks to Bob Rich, it's all shiny and sports a new Teflon seal. However, when 
attaching to the fire wall via the z-shaped bracket, I appear to be missing a 
fixing nut.

On the end of the valve, opposite the actuating rod, is a threaded post which 
passes thru a hole in the mounting bracket and holds the vale in place 
against the firewall. It appears to require a nut of some kind ... an acorn nut 
perhaps?
According to my German thread gauge, the thread is 18G 5/16.
Can someone identify the thread's common name and describe or supply a 
picture of the correct fixing nut? I've got a bunch of "under the bonnet" 
photos, 
but no close-up of the petrol valve.

Thanks

Don B.
