Help: I can't find an m8x1.75 bolt for my ecu ground.
As the title states, I can't find an m8x1.75 bolt anywhere to redo my ecu ground. (I don't have the original one to clean either, as my ground was relocated by a PO.)
I've been following Aaron Cake's "propper grounding procedure" write up, as my car is not reving properly.
Thank you.

I was hoping so, but I figured that Aaron would have caught it after this post that he replied to.

Luckily the other grounds were 6x1! I guess Mazda just wanted throw a curveball.

The bolt is the same M8 x 1.25 bolt as used throughout the car. For example, any of the bolts holding down the intake manifold will fit the hole.
I made a mistake when saying it is 1.75. I will update my writeup and have made a note to do so. Sometimes these things happen.

The pitch- in this example, 1.25mm- is the distance between thread crests, so a 1.75 pitch bolt would be coarser, not finer.
Bloody Yurpeons screwed up everything.

Thanks for your input as it was absolutely a great contribution... talk about useless posts...
Would an admin please close this thread as the issue has been resolved. Thank you.

That would be an excellent hypothesis/theory if that's how metric hardware nomenclature worked...but it's not.
