DO NOT RUN NO WATER!!

Get some high temp silicone gasket maker, and put some inside.. like.. alot.. try that.. if it's totally stripped you'll have to go bigger.. but please don't run no waater..

helicoil it.. you may have to take it a bit apart becouse you have to drill out the hole then insert the coil... but that would be the best way to do it

Are the threads stripped on the hard line or in the block! If its just the lines buy some Taka lines and call it good! You can find those most anywhere(Heavythrottle, Phase 2, Enjuku) If its the block side then I would helicoil it! Another thing I guess you could try is some Copper RTV if its not stripped too bad! I'd try that before the silicone but either might work.
