Default Gas Leak
Model Number: 671AH   Brand: Admiral   Age: More than 10 years   

I have a major leak whose location appears between the head of one of the two bolts that connects the oven control valve to the manifold. Is there a kit available to fix this problem? I suspect that I just need a new gasket and/or retighten the bolt. Is this correct and if so, where can I get a gasket? Someone told me the bolt should be treated with pipe compound before it is tightend; is this true.

Any ideas you can give me would be great. My stove is in a remote site and its leak forced me to eat peanut butter rather than steak last time I was at the cabin.

Thanks
