    Power Steering Idler Adjusting Bolt

    Does anyone know what threading the adjustment bolt uses on the Power Steering Idler pulley? Just changed my belts and realized my van doesn't have this particular bolt. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

    Can anyone pull their bolt and check the threading? I'd grratly appreciate it. Tim, if you have one laying around, I'd buy it from you.

    I happen to have an extra power steering idler laying here so I checked it for you. The long tensioner bolt is M8 X 1.25 X 90. I don't have an extra AC idler handy, but suspect that could be the same. Good luck. Tim

    An option if you don't mind stainless: http://www.amazon.com/Fully-Threaded...m8+x+1.25+x+90

    BTW, you don't want my extra. It was on the core engine I put into my 86 and is extremely rusty (tensioner bolt rusted in place). Tim

    Thanks very much Tim! Just ordered the stainless 4 pack on Amazon; should be here in a few days. I'll post pics of them shining in the engine compartment!
