Hi Rich, a wrecking yard (and the forums already mentioned) may be a good bet. Do you have size details?

Wagner" <[email protected]> Subject: [alfa] Tappet Jam Nut Brother Raccoons: I'm in a pinch with a non-Alfa problem, and if you don't mind I'd like to ask for your ideas. I've got an '89 Mitsubishi Mirage. Its valve train uses rockers with adjustable tappets and jam nuts to keep them in place, just like on the GTV6. The problem is, one of the jam nuts is stripped and I need to find a replacement. Do any of you have any idea where to find that kind of nut? I can't get it from Mitsubishi any more, and none of the usual auto parts outlets carry that part for any car. Ideas?
