Easy outs are the last choice for me in almost every situation other than fittings that have been sheared off,not twisted off during a removal attempt. it was me I would forget the easy out. Reason being if you break it off, which happens often then you have a real problem on your hands. If you try it be very careful how hard you pull on it! You are correct that the thread is not our standard NPT but BSPP British Standard Pipe Parallel or BSPT Tapered aka G thread. The easy way to know which you are dealing with is a BSPP fitting in that application would have a machines flat surface and a sealing washer used. If there was no sealing washer you have a BSPT fitting. Although NPT and BSPT fittings will screw together easily part way they will not seal as the TPI differs. If I was in your situation I would use the proper size tap drill to remove the bulk of the fitting followed by a BSP tap to remove the rest. With just a bit of wiggle, good lube and good judgement the tap will follow the softer aluminum and not damage the block threads. If you must try an easy out heat the aluminum fitting a few time s with a torch followed by cooling with a squirt of water.

After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
