Bolt specs and pipes

Dippydog · Jul 24th, 2022, 09:41

Does anyone know the specs of the bolt that holds the crank sensor to its mounting please? I'm talking of the bolt that passes through the hole in the crank sensor and into the housing that sits in the cut out in the bellhousing.The only thing I know is its head takes a 10mm spanner but I could do with knowing the length/thread pitch etc.
Now to the pipes mentioned in title.The rear screen wash on my V70 has never worked[although the wiper does]so I finally got round to checking and found the pump is shot.While doing this I saw the pipe comes from the pump for a couple of inches and then into a "T" piece from there one pipe goes up to the inner wing and the disappears[presumably making its way to the washer jet on the tailgate] while the pipe from the "spur" of the "T" piece continues for a few inches and the connects to nothing.There is also a second pipe that comes up from lower down[so I'm assuming this comes from the lower windscreen washer pump] which also then connects to nothing.The windscreen washers work so where should these two "spare" open ended pipes go/what should they connect to??
Tia for any help.

Can't help with the bolt, but the pipes I think are simply vent pipes, they should be clipped to the outside of the washer filler tube.
The pipe to the rear washer has a habit of coming apart under the boot floor r/h side, especially if the washer jet gets blocked, there is also a non reurn valve located just below the jet, needs trim removed to find it.

As above with the pipes, if you overfill the reservoir you'll probably see the excess coming out of these - they should be clipped vertically, so you can put the max amount of fluid in the tank.

This is what VIDA says is the bolt holding the crank sensor to its bracket

M6x16mm, but couldnt find the thread pitch

Ah,it never occurred to me they were vent pipes

as neither were clipped to anything and both ended near the power steering reservoir/header tank.At least now I'm not trying to figure out what the heck they should connect to

Goupil Thanks for the link,that looks to be the one.
Ta to one and all for the info.

most 6mm bolts with 10mm heads are a standard metric pitch
