Zed Head.....doesn't that post seem a little strange?? Joined yesterday, made that post, generic comment, left immediately, hasn't been back since......

Yes it does, but it didn't have any SPAM associated so what the heck. Benefit of the doubt.

I'm not really up on how those troll-bit things work. Didn't check that he left immediately and hasn't been back (how do you tell?). What do you think?

His IP address does match his profile location...

His join date was 2/10/11, his post was at 2:47pm and his last activity was at 2:47pm. That and the content of his post.....I could be wrong.

Anyone know the size/thread for the nut for the idler pulley bolt?

The nut is a M10x1.25.

The pitch is fine compared to the normal nuts (M10x1.5) you will fined in a hardware store. You best bet would be an autoparts shop or machine shop. You could ask a garage is you can hunt through a nut and bolts tin.

The other thing you might want to know is the nut flats are 14mm opposed to the standard M10x1.5 nuts with 17mm flats. 17mm should still clear the bearing.

The flat washer also has a small outside diameter OD: 16mm, ID: 10.2mm, thickness 2mm. The spring washer is normal size.
