Default Nut size!

Could someone please help me out...I need to find out what size cap nut to buy to hold on the spark plug wire cover. I'm looking at this chart, and I can't figure it out. Anyone know?

I don't have one to measure...I need 4 and I'm not buying them from the dealership. Thank you!

Tyler

Helm's Manual says it's 6x1.0mm but I have no idea what that translates to in US specs. I'm looking at this site, that sells them for $0.10 a piece, instead of the $25 I'll pay for a set of 4 from the dealership.

10-24 or 10-32? I honestly don't know the difference.

Does this look like it would work?

I would think you could find some nuts in the metric size. You shouldn't really mix metric with standard.

This place looks to have what you're looking for. http://www.bugcity.com/cgi-bin...0A038

Did you guys know that these things are almost seven dollars a piece through Acura?

True story.

If you have access to a junk yard pretty much every honda made between 2002 and 1980 all use these same nuts. You could probably score them for free. I went to three different wrecking yards looking for these nuts and all three places let me take as many as I wanted.

Yup...those were the ones I bought. $0.50 a piece, but $8 shipping. Oh well, $10 is better than $30.
