The problem probably isn't with carbon in the threads - rather build up on the exposed screw that won't allow it to fit into the threads.
Screw head is stripped. Was going to take it to the dumpster, but since it still has the gas tube and is 2 piece, it will make a novel support for a potted chile pepper plant on the deck. I'll put the $20 I could have spent on Kroil towards a Superlative that won't have this problem and that can be accessed under any handguard
