Petcock screws

Post by deadbeathero » Thu Aug 09, 2012 11:46 pm

Hey everyone,

I decided to change out my petcock but three screws holding it in
Didn't come off without a fight! Two of them striped pretty bad but I
Am having even a harder time finding some to replace them. The parts manual
States that they are 6x25 but I believe they are 6x0.9. Either way, no luck, and I
Am so ready to get this petcock on!

Any ideas on where I could find them? I tried searching google and ebay. Thanks!

Metric -
M6 x 25 refers to the length of the screw.

M6 x 0.9 refers to the "pitch" of the threads.

so it's technically a 6mm x 0.9mm x 25mm screw.

take one with you to:
Alamo Bolt & Screw
10101 Jones Maltsberger
between 281 & west side of the airport
