when trying to fix an oil leak from the oil pan, i discovered broken bolt.
i was thinking to reseal the pan and replace all 13 bolts.
i ordered the bolts among some other parts, but sunset had only 2 bots in hand, so i took them.
today i was planing to remove the broken bolt, and complete the task.
i cleaned all the bolts i have (that i previously removed from the pan), and then reached for the 2 new ones i got.
when i looked at it, the two new bolts are shorter then the ones i have.
the new bolt is M6X16. the old is M6X20.
see attached pics.
at first i was sure i ordered the wrong bolt, buy checking at the parts list, it looks like the correct size is the 16mm.
so where the hell those 20's came from?
