    Default Where to source Miata specific bolts

    I'm doing a timing belt change on my 91' Miata and inadvertently over torqued and deformed all four bolts that secure the water pump to the block as well as the bolts that attach the idler and tensioner pulleys. So, now I need new bolts and was hoping to get advice as to where is the best place to find them locally. I live in Fort Worth. My best guess is either the dealership or junkyard but I doubt either will be open until Tuesday, huh? Thanks in advance!

    Mazda-Nissan Heaven may be your best bet if they will sell just the bolts (they can be fickle at times). Link - http://mazdanissanheaven.com/

    I'd also recommend picking up a Torque wrench at Harbor Freight.

    If you have enough of the bolts to find a match, your local hardware store or auto parts store may have what you need.

    And, welcome to the forum.

    If you were as slow as me, you wouldn't be afraid either.

    I could probably make it up that way. When is a good time?

    Well, I got the bolts! Much thanks to Rouge. I owe you one, man! And thanks POS Racing and Cone-cerned for your help too. This is a great community. I'm glad to be a part of it. Now hopefully I can finish the timing belt, not jack anything else up and get back to drivin'.
