MRO Member 36 Member For: 17y 3m 19d Posted 20/03/12 01:19 AM Share Posted 20/03/12 01:19 AM (edited) Hi Guys,I just bought a second hand BF F6 intercooler and need to plug the hole where the boost sensor used to be mounted. I am having trouble finding the correct size bolt to do this. I have tried an M12 bolt but this isnt big enough. Does anyone know the exact size bolt I need or have any other suggestions?Thanks Edited 20/03/12 01:19 AM by MRO Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/79369-f6-intercooler-boost-sensor-hole/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont really want to pay $150 for something that can be done for $2 with the right sized bolt.

A bit of thread tape and bobs your uncle. Get the correct thread, because if you sell it on the purchaser may want to reinstall the factory sender.
