[s-cars] Tap size needed for waste gate screw?

[Young, Steve]

Dave...

I was able to remove the screw from my "butchered" cap.  According to my
thread gauge, the screw is an M12x1.25.  Good luck.

Not sure.  I tried exerting *some* force to back it out more, but the
screw jammed firmly.  I'm a little afraid to exert too much force for
fear of breaking something.
