lost a float bowl screw. it's 5 MM X something other than .8

not an Ace hardware item, and that's all we have in this itty bitty burg.

does anybody know what the thread pitch is on this thing?

What Solex carb doesn't use a standard pitch M5 bolt???

...every Solex carb I have worked on has had all standard thread pitches on every carb fastener be it M3, M4, M5, or M6. If an M5-0.8 isn't doing it for you I suspect the threads are buggered up...
