No, I bought this "bottoming tap" that while isn't completely flat, it's designed to go deeper than a regular tap. You can see in the last pic how it went to the bottom thread in the carb body. It worked great.

         Well done, it's always very satisfying when you can restore a part like this.     Brian.

I'm so glad I grew up in the 60s & 70s. I did so much stupid stuff and there's no record of it.............Anywhere !!
