Anyone know what store carrys a 8mmx1.25 tap?
 

Already STFA. Someone on the B5 A4 said it should be available at any hardware store. I went to Sears, Checker Auto Parts and NAPA. None of them had it. Sears had it, but it was in a kit and I didn't wanna buy the kit.
TIA.

curious what did you strip?

Nothing. The threads are rusted. Soaking it with WD-40 right now, doubt it'll work.

Is there a Production Tool Supply in your area, or a J & L Industrial Supply...
 

Those places would have it for sure......

Otherwise look under industrial supply or tool & die supply in the phone book. Perhaps even power tools, or Tools--electric.

Hope this helps.

Thanks. I'll look around.

try e-taps if you can wait..
