• Looking for the 10mm nut that goes on the governor shaft. It's a 10mm super fine "reverse" thread nut. It's for an MK1 TD Bosch VE pump.
  
  I have gone to about 3 different bolts & supply shops with no luck. Supposedly the reverse/left handed thread nuts are very hard to find.
  
  any info would be greatly appreciated.

• You MK1 Governor shaft nut looks like my Mk2 nut.

  Which are you looking for?
  I can definitely spare one for the MK1 pump, but not the MK2.
