Size of Distributor timing set screw

Posted December 9, 20159 yr

Does anybody knows what is the size and lenght of the screw and washer needed to hold the position of the distributor once the timing is set??? I know it comes out with an 8mm wrench.

NISSAN 22750-H2300, SCREW KIT:

Anyone??

The main bolt is 6 x 1.0 and about 15mm long. It has a 10 mm head. The other one that faces down is a 8mm head. That's a 5x0.8mm bolt maybe 10mm long. Which one are we talking about?

No bolt should be a mystery that needs our help to figure out.. With few exceptions most bolts are 4/0.7, 5/0.8, 6/1.0, 8/1.25, 10/1.5 (into engine block or trans) or 10/1.25 or 12/1.25 (suspension). Lengths can always be estimated by adding the thickness of what is being bolted down + 2 times the bolt diameter. I'd go buy one bolt and nut of each thread and use them for test fits anytime you have a question.
