You will need to take the carb body and have a thread insert put into the mixture screw location. This is really common on the 32/36 DGV carb that is used on Volvo conversions. I've scrapped a Weber for this before, because the carb body threads get mashed up with the spring loaded mixture screw and allow too much air past the threads to get a decent idle adjust. The body is very soft alum. alloy. You can use some thick silicone grease on the threads to seal them up if it's nopt too bad, but if it backed out, it's probably beyond recovery withour surgery.
