hi everyone.

i did this once on an old V8.  the carb was off and the nut went down that huge hole in the intake manifold.  my dad fashioned a probe from an old toothbrush and a refrigerator-magnet tip, and luckily fished it out.

Oh, okay, a KA. I was wondering how you managed to drop a bolt through the
plug hole of a U or R motor. That makes more sense.

It is a KA24DE with the plugs in the center of the valve cover. I think the
bolt dropped in before I got the valve cover on but really don't know for
sure.  I remember the bolt disappearing and thought it had landed on the
floor somewhere.
