Urrggh. After picking out the shit alloy threads from a tifosi BB from my BB shell, I ran a proper thread through it off another BB, it tightened up fine to the end. A campag ones arrived today I tried the same by hand thing with and it gets stuck half way. When my campag tool arrives tomorrow would it be okay to use that to tighten it past the sticky patch or should I take it to the LBS which is miles away to get the thread cleaned out again and faced? Campag cups alloy.
Cheers I didn't really want to go back, but for a fiver I guess it's money and time well spent if it saves the BB. 2 tifosi's later with threads miles off BSA, glad I got a campagnolo one now.
