There are "those who have and those who will" misplace a throttle blade screw when they start disassembling them. I've watched it happen.

Re: What size screw in the TB blade? Thanks Dad.
Anyways yeah it's really odd and you need to get a new one and re-tap the hole and put a completly different screw in.
Seen it happen, hell yeah he has, one time and I fixed it. Sad thing is I like the fix more than the standard screw, but it's jsut not needed.
