THS Mounts fitting
« on: May 29, 2012, 04:24:47 pm »
I am going to fit my THS Engine mounts and was wondering if I should buy new bolts to fit them or if the old ones will be fine.  The cambelt side engine mount bolts have already been out once when I changed the cambelt last year.  They appear to be robust bolts and should be fine to be re-used.  Any advice is appreciated :happy2:

Use new bolts - peace of mind for a couple of beer tokens.
