Throttle body bolt all jacked up HELP So i was installing my nitrous plate kit on my cts-v, I went to put the three bolts back in the throttle body to secure it to the intake and crossthreaded the last one on the passenger side. I was wondering what my options were. It looks like gm used threaded metal inserts in the intake to secure the throttle body, can these be replaced or rethreaded? Has anyone else had experience with this problem?,,,any advice would be welcome
Those bolts are 6.0mm X 1.00 mm X 40-45mm. I would try a 6.0mm X 1.00mm thread chaser, or failing that a tap of the same size to clean up the threads on the intake a use a new bolt.
