I have an old epc, the part numbers that I found for a 1989 420 SEL alternator bracket bolts are: (M8x35 )000912 008098 qty 3; (M8x65) 000912 008058 qty 1. Are these correct?
I found the easiest way to get the rounded out allen bolt loose is to drive a 12 point 12MM socket on it and the you can back it out.
