TR3B Fuel Pump Threads

["David Moag" <moag@ix.netcom.com>]

Hello all. The fuel pump on my TR3B has what appears to be some trashed
threads where the output fuel pipe connects. This leads to the pipe screwing
in at a bad angle, and gas leaks. Since the pump is made of pot metal (it's
the original style), I am not sure I can simply re-tap the threads. Any
ideas what I should do?

Thanks,
