afternoon folks.
looking for help!!!
the nut on top of my throttle body has sheared off (the highest one on a m20b25 TB with the tall spring under it).
i noticed it was a bit loose so gently tightened it up & it sheared off.
is it possible to drill it out & tap it to put a (small) bolt in there to hold it in place??
the spring hasn't come off as the upper arm is still connected to the lower arm but it's loose on top.
so, can i drill it & tap it??
m20 TB help.

if it's got t*ts or wheels it's bound to be trouble...............prove me wrong.

except on mine it is/was a 10mm nut,
so. is it possible to drill/tap that shaft? i only need it to be about 3-4mm deep, enough for a machine screw & washer to hold it in place.
