    Enlarging a 3/8npt thread.

    I have had a similar problem and the easiest solution, as previously mentioned, is to grind some of the lead off the tap. This means that, as it is a tapered thread, you will start cutting material before you hit the bottom of the hole. Good luck and I hope that helps.
