While riding up the mountain last week my air cleaner fell off (forgot to loctite after TPS reset, d'oh!). I was able to recover the filter and cover and zip tied/taped it back on to finish the ride, but couldn't find the screws. I have the Carbon ham can race air cleaner, and I'm talking about the screws that hold the cover and filter in place. I'm gonna go down to Ace a little later and try and find some that will work, anyone know the size and thread count off hand?

Sorry can't help you with your problem but what model bike do you have that you had to take the air cleaner off for TPS reset?
Seems a like a lot of work...

00 X1, its super easy to take the air cleaner off, just did that to make sure the throttle was closed all the way before reseting it, and to clean out some of the blowback.

well they are a phillips head 5/16-18. go to any bike shop and they will have used ones in any mechanics tool box, most likely for free.
