If you recently spent several days in a open air garage, repairing an oil leak.  I have found your bolt!!  I don't know what maybe about to fall off your motor because this bolt is missing.  You should check very carefully, this may be "The Bolt" that holds it all together.   ;D ;D

John,

That's the bolt that holds all 8 wheels on, the windows, the antifreeze in  and the engine to the bus... :o

You better put it back PRONTO! ;)

Does it have a "Whitworth"  (aka British Standard) thread?  If not, I'm off the hook!

Naah, That bolt looks like it was intended for a 4104 tire tread. Put it back in the Open Air Garage and eventually it'll find its way to the tire.

That looks like a bolt out of a cushman scooter.  It is the main bolt without it nothing works.

Please send it to crown in Costa Rica.

It could be my bolt, unless. ???..........depends what happened to you or your coach with the bolt in question.

If it was serious, it wasn't my bolt; I never have seen it before; must be a case of mistaken identity.

Not mind, Any Flat rate pay auto mechanic will tell you DON'T Unbolt it if you can bend it !!!

Besides left over bolts aid in weight reduction which lead to better fuel mileage.
