M10 x 1.25 is very rare indeed! Bloody Ford's!

M10 fine is usually 1mm pitch.

[Dave R]

just checked my ebay.... v6 are m12, by 1.5...... still as rare.....

I might be able to get some of these odd sizes from BAPPS who managed to supply me with M5 set screws.

 

Only might though

I think you can ask from any local mechanic. They will repair it easily. I never think about thread size as the more I will use the more it will be safer.

Erm, my bolts are pretty standard 1.5 pitch, I had buckets of them

Didn't find any bolts on a Ford strange or rare except prop/diff 1mm pitch Screwfix do them all

The bolt holes are in the back of the block and the same size and pattern in all the standard fords from crossflow to zetec. M10 x 1.5 same as nearly all the M10 bolts in my come in handy box. Nothing special or rare at all. Just check you fit the correct length.

12X 1,5 are common 12x 1 can be abit rare as can 12x 1.75 but if you use a proper fastener supplier they should be able to supply mowerman
