What bolt size/thread for the TPS?
I need to know what bolt size/thread the bolts for the TPS are, because when I was going to replace the throttle body I realized that one of the TPS bolts was bad, the threads were damaged at the end of the bolt....
If there's a part number for these bolts it'd be very good to know since I am afraid that they might be not-so-common in Europe where I live.

Unfortunately, they're not really an easy to find metric OR standard (my experience anyway). I broke one a while ago, and wound up going to the junkyard and taking one off a 2.8L V6 F-body. They use the same basic TPS, and the screw is exactly the same.

Reason I wanna know is that I am more likely to find TBI cars in my local junkyards since there are not many F-bodys around here - Especially not in the junkyards.... And I belive the same TPS is used on the TBI on Chevy Vans for example?
But I a considering have the TPS holes machined to fit standard M5's instead of hunting for M4.5 bolts...
