Help: Throttle Plate Screws

[qckslvr]

Does anyone know what size screws hold the throttle plate to the throttle shaft, and where to procure new ones?

Yes, I ground off the back and removed the OEM screws for the purpose of cleaning a very gummed up throttle body...I assumed in the heat of the moment that I would be able to find replacements easily...but hours of searching has revealed nothing.

Did you check realoem to see if they are available by themselves ?

RealOEM doesn't show the throttle plate, screws or shaft in the diagram.

They look like m4 screws. I'll have check later I think I got a spare lying around

Ok, looks like they are M4x.70, I picked up a couple stainless screws at the local hardware store. I'm going to use red loctite, and kill the threads on the backside to prevent them from becoming FOD.

Thanks everyone.
