Lost radiator drain screw

Post by Rambo »

I somehow missed placed my radiator drain screw while draining the system so I went to the hardware store and found a hex bolt that the threads were compatible with. I filled it up and it leaked so anybody have an idea what kind of screw this is because they don't sell it at the Fiat parts dealers

It should be available at any parts store in the Help or Brass Fittings rack.
