HELP: I need a throttle body blade screw I had one of my throttle body blade screws strip out, so I had to drill it to get it out, but now I need a new screw and can't find a replacement.
For clarification, it is the two screws that actually hold the throttle body blade to the shaft on the inside of the throttle body. I've gone to the dealer: no luck. I went to parts stores, no luck, it's some special thread with a taper'd head on it. I can't even find a screw with a correct thread on it.
If anyone knows where I can buy one, or has an old throttle body with a screw they can mail my way, please let me know. It sucks that the car is down because of a freaking 30 cent screw.
