I'm assuming you mean the nut nut for the battery and alternator cables.
8mm X 1.25 pitch.

Subject: starter nut question

Can anyone tell me what the size and pitch of the nut on the starter
solenoid is for  an 85 Westy w/MT.  I just finished the clutch, and
bolting
everything back up I could not find the nut.  It was the first thing to
come off, and the only thing missing, so I can't complain.  I really
don't
want to remove the starter again to size it up at the store.

Thanks
Graham
