Does anyone know of (or has compiled) a bolts and fixtures list for the Europa?
In particular I'm after one for the Special, but I imagine there are a lot of common parts. The Parts List lists part numbers, and not thread size, length etc.
I was fixing my drivers seat at the weekend and found that the rear bolts into the floor were screwed into the moulded in bobbin and the front just had a smaller diameter bolt through to the outside which has a washer and nyloc nut! It turns out these bolts are 5/16" UNC x 3/4" - assuming the rear ones were correct. Fortunately I found some in my box of bolts from when I had a mini (I sold it around 1991!) as the generic bolt set I bought was for UNF bolts.
Presently I could do with knowing the size of the following:-
(i) The four bolts that hold the Gear Level Pivot mounting plate to the backbone. It currently has 3 different bolts fitted, and one was missing until I
fitted a 4th.
(ii) The two bolts that hold the choke/heater bracket to the tunnel. The ones fitted to mine are really too long as the bolt on the LH bolt is touching the
heater tube. Is the backbone tapped to take bolts as mine has nuts fitted inside it? - That's fun! I should have measured it when they were removed.
