Robert,
This same thing happened to me. My first thought was to insert a heli-coil, but
while
waiting to pay, I noticed that the threads at the bottom of the hole were ok. I
then
decided to just buy a slightly longer cap screw (1/4 inch) and use it. Well, it
worked
great and saved me from a $40.00 heli-coil set and/or a new fuel pump.
Maybe this will work for you. Good luck!
