I have gone all over town to the bolt and nut shops, and nobody sells imperial stuff. Can you believe it. I have even tried the lawnmower and power products repair shops.

I measured the diameter of the bolt as you can see in the pic. It looks like the bolt is 3mm in diameter.

If I can't get one from you guys, I think I am just going to leave it. It seems to work well enough with just the three, even though it does look like some gas is leaking out there.

Oh well....

The Imperial screw you need is a #6-32 x 3/8" long.
Avalible in SA. here: http://www.boltfast.co.za/contact.html

Or if you have a Briggs and Stratton dealer, the part# for this screw is BSP-691619.

I have a ton of 6-32 screws. I used to attach transformers with them when I built amplifiers.

I just want to say a very big thank you to r_chez for sending me a carb that I could use for spares. I received it yesterday, and have already taken it apart and used some of the screws.

I am glad to be a part of a forum where the members are so helpful

Thanks again r_chez
