my impatience led me to break the bolt that goes on the stud of the top right corner on the throttle body which holds the elbow and my misfortune is that the nut broke a whole chunk of the studd that comes out of the throttle body in half. I can drill out the old one no problem. My question is where can i find a new stud. Mazda parts doesnt cary it. If i was to got o a hardware store could i find one and what type of stud/bolt am I looking for. thank you very much

 

Might just want to get one from Mazda. Shouldn't be too pricey, I think that part is separated out in the parts catalog.

There ya go. If they don't have autozone in Canada (do they?), then just find a stud at a hardware store with the same length and pitch. Mazda doesn't sell them (there's no part number for it and it's not listed in their parts directories) and it'd cost you more to ship from another member than it would to find it at a hardware store. Good luck!
