Default Engine compartment ground stud

Mounted the magnet plug for the CTEK charger today. Only problem I had was trying to connect the ground. Taking off the ground nut and quickly realized the whole stud was turning. I tighten it back down. Plan is to get another nut and pinch the ground eyelet between the two nuts. Anyone by any chance know the ground nut thread size?

I went through the Helms Section 11 pages 1- 1017 and all I could find was the fact that it is circuit G102. No mention of the post as far as a description. Might want to call a dealer and see if they can find it as a part number.

Sorry.

Thanks for checking for me. I found out it is a M8, not sure if the thread is a 1.0 or 1.5. Bought one of each. Don’t know which I used other then the one that worked, I think it was the courser thread.
