Just purchased a Rochester BC 1-Barrel that has a stripped and stuck fuel inlet. The carburetor is an exact match for my 1954 Hydra-Matic restoration project so I would like to repair it if possible. I tried PB Blaster and WD 40 and the fitting will not budge. Does anyone have any suggestions? I decided to stop before I did any further damage. The pics below show how it looked when I got it and then after I worked on it some after soaking it and trying to turn the nub with some needle nose vise grips.
