Just received some new throttle pots - very timely service, but they arrived without the screws.

Is there a set type/size to use, before I start trying the contents of my tool box.

The others are rusty and one has snapped so need to replace them all.

Was thinking of using ones with an allen head, as the screw type tend to burr off after a while.

Cheers

Ive just changed mine to stainless cap head screws, I think they were M3x25. they didn't have any stainless washers though, they must be special because they have quite a big o/d.

O/d is the outside diameter of the washer, the're about 10mm where a normal M3 washers would be about 5mm outside diameter
