To get you by, you can pack the bolt out with some small washers of the appropriate size and thickness. The fix works well, and if you put it on the middle carb it can't be seen. They only need a very light tighten to hold in place, as the woodruff key stops any rotation.

Failing that, fit a fuel injection setup.

Look, my paintwork hasn't got "Fish scales" :x they're "Dragon scales" right!!! However, after some thought, I will accept "Black Marlin" or "Swordfish", but definitely not "Haddock" or "Cod".
