Alden B. Wrench Fetcher A Joined: Dec 2013 Posts: 117 Brooklyn, New York	Guys, I have a stripped out bolt hole on my zinc alloy carb. The bolt appears to me to be a 7/32" x 28tpi. What would be the proper next size larger to tap? (I have available what appears to me to be a 1/4" x 20tpi machine bolt.)
