Rattle coming from Throttle Arm (on Bosch)
#18
Ok had a closer look around the pump, on the right of the pump as your looking at it (passenger side) there is a slider with a bolt missing, not sure if that one matters, I don't think it does.

More importantly, one of the nuts on the left bottom side of the pump (near the cam belt cover) is loose, I can only get it finger tight due to none of my tools (socket set and spanners) fitting down in the gap. Is this the cause of the epic vibration of the pump?

What tools best for tightening this without having to remove anything? Socket and spanner won't go down there. Maybe the circle end of a spanner? Also can anyone confirm what size it is? 13mm? 14mm?
