" I accidentally removed the screw from the left upper side of my 1990 OMC Cobra outdrive (4 cyl 135hp) and the nut that held screw on was not attached to the housing is now floating around in the upper (water cooling area) of the outdrive! I've been told my Cobra-smart mechanics that there are no moving parts in that area, but the hole needs to be blocked tightly otherwise the engine would over heat. Would I use a self tapping screw in it's place or do I have to take the outdrive off to get the nut and super glue it to the nut?
thanx
