| Quick Help ?
Some how I must have striped out one of the bolts that holds the motor plate to the trany and it just came out last night. Any quick fixes to hold untill I can find a new one? |

I think if you use a button head and go in the other way and used a nut on the tranny side it would clear. So the button head would be on the motor plate... You sure it didn't just vibrate out? |

Is the bolt stripped or the threads in the tranny? If it's the tranny, no point getting a new bolt. I'd just wrap the bolt in teflon tape and add loctite and hope for the best. Otherwise, you may have to drill and tap it for a larger bolt (if possible).

just use the botton head method, longer screw and a nut will solve the problem |
