Default Thread size of pilot jet screw

Anyone know the thread size of the pilot jet screw? I need to retap the hole in the carb housing that this goes into. Don't ask why.

It's metric fine, M6 x .75, not the easiest to find.
Here's one place that carries them:

Search Results - GlobalIndustrial.com set m6&x=27&y=8

Ride on

Hmmmmm........ The answer I got from Kouba was 1 X .6. I did re-tap it to that size. Maybe that's why the Kouba adjustable screw didn't want to seat properly. If you're right, it's too bad because I also have a 1 X .75 tap.

At this point I'm buying a carb from a fellow inmate who put in a pumper. I'm afraid mine's toast.
