You will have to use a drill to get the rivets off the fuel tap. Start with a very small drill bit and go up in size until it comes off. The tap repair kit should come with screws to use in place if the rivets, but you will need to have a properly sized tap to put threads in the fuel tap body. Therefore you do not want to drill too big a hole to remove the rivets.
