hello,

i overtightnened my pressostat onto my accumulator and stripped the aluminum threads on the accumulator. i can't screw on my pressostat.

couldn't find a helicoil to fit.

currently i've jumped the plug so the a/c remains on--i'm switching it off manually.

any suggestions about fixing the threads on the port short of replacing the accumulator?

thanks as always,
