While moving the upper pressure duct to get to a spark plug, I lost the upper pressure duct bolt and washer in the engine bay  Please help me find a replacement.
Thanks,

Find the missing bolt and washer, dont leave it in there. Go down to your local tool store and buy what looks like a long screwdriver that may or may not also be telescopic and has a magnet on the end of it. You should also be able to find something the same size that has a mirror on the end of it as well. Just trawl it around all the areas that it may have falling into and hopefully you can retrieve it.

Thank you Alan.
I have 2 magnetic extendable tool/part retreivers that you described with lights in the magnets, but no mirrors.
It fell near the distributor and I looked around there for an hour yesterday without even a hint of luck.
Any other tips on finding it anyone?
