Diagnostic Worksheets are available to you at no cost. The GM Diagnostic Worksheet is available in pad form from Reynolds & Reynolds at

FASTENERS
METRIC FASTENERS
This vehicle is dimensioned in the metric system. Most metric fasteners are very close in diameter to well known fasteners in the English, inch system.
Replace fasteners with those of the same nominal diameter, thread pitch, and strength.
A number marking identifies the OE metric fasteners except cross-recess head screws. The number also indicates the strength of the fastener material.
A Posidrive(R) or Type 1A cross-recess identifies a metric cross-recess screw. For best results, use a Type 1A cross-recess screwdriver, or equivalent,
in Posidrive(R) recess head screws.
GM Engineering Standards and North American Industries have adopted a portion of the ISO-defined standard metric fastener sizes. The purpose was
to reduce the number of fastener sizes used while retaining the best thread qualities in each thread size. For example, the metric M6.0 X 1 screw, with
nearly the same diameter and 25.4 threads per inch replaced the English 1/4-20 and 1/4-28 screws. The thread pitch is midway between the English
coarse and fine thread pitches.
