Default Carb troubles

I was wondering if anyone could help me with my problem. I have a tri-power car and the threads on the discharge nozzels for the accelerator pump are stripped (squirters) middle carb. I have heard there is a kit for fixing that but can't find anyone who knows about it. Help please and thanks

I doubt that this is so common a prob that there is a kit available.
Gently re-tap the threads and use loc-tight.
Or,....drill to larger size, use an insert/reducer and reinstal "squirter".
Or,...find a replacement carb body.
