Anyone know the size of the small bolt that holds the dipstick to the block? I lost mine.

The only thing I could find was CLAMP-SCREW, Oil Filler Tube. The screw is M10x1.5x35.

Metric thread doesn't sound right... especially not 35mm.

The above is from my 82-85 Parts and Illustration Cat., paper version. Interestingly enough, I could find no reference to the 'screw' in the 82-91 CD version. 35 mm would seem to be overkill.

trucknbobber , no one here will know the answer because this website is for the third generation of Chevy Camaro and Pontiac Firebird cars only , 1982 through 1992 , hence the name "Third Gen . Org" . I know that question box that pops up doesn't really make that clear , and your best bet is gonna be to find an S10 forum to ask your question .
