Sunday, I replaced my injectors with some reman Bosch IIIs. In the process I managed to drop the rear most drivers side runner bolt somewhere between the upper bell housing and firewall. Tried to fish it out with a magnet, but so far no luck. Naturally, it was the one special bolt of the lot, a hex head with a rod sticking out, helps keep some of the throttle cables from rubbing on the runner. Any one got a spare they could sell me?

Thanks, but that one is different from the one I have (had). It's not the center but the rear most runner bolt. It just has a smooth rod about 1/16" thick by 1-1/2" long sticking out of the bolt head.

I took some photos of the TPI before disassemble. I'll check and see if that bolt is visible in any of them. BTW, mine doesn't have have the bolt with the cable guides like the one in your photo.

Thanks for the exploded diagram.

I would think it would need to be near the back if that spark plug wire clip goes on it. I have 3 different length bolts for the runners, now I'm starting to wonder if the right bolts were in the right places when I took them out.
