Stripped thread repair

Posted by ellistractor on February 04, 2005 at 10:55:24 from (65.120.150.5):

My tractor has three bolts around the mcv that will no longer torque to spec (20lbs). It is developing a slight drip. Before this drip goes into a blown gasket is their a repair that can be made? The problem as I see it is that the bolt threads are stronger than the casing threads & the casing threads are now gone (because me and whoever owned it before me overtorqued the bolts). Because the mcv cannot cinch tight to the casing, the leak is now starting. Any input is greatly appreciated.
