Thread size for 13mm nut on OM603 Rubber Belt Tensioner
Somehow (due to being a mediocre DIYer
 ) I lost the nut that holds the tensioner spring to the rubber perch. I found the part number to be 304032008006, but it is no longer available. Do any of you guys know the thread size for this 13mm nut so I can swing by a hardware store and pick one up?

Easier said than done. From the factory, the bolt is trapped by the upper radiator hose fitting on the head. There's enough room to retract the bolt to free the tensioner spring pivot but not pull off the bolt completely. If you forget to install the bolt before attaching the upper hose fitting, you can install the bolt from the front. IIRC the nut is a tiny bit special by way of a flare that serves as a washer. So use a regular nut and washer.
