Replacing three O-rings in my Jandy Valve (solar pool panel valve).

One of the screws is weak and can't be tightened without further
damaging the PVC (I assume).

What can I use to help and be able to tighten the screw a little more?

I need to remove the screws in the future, so I think JB-Weld or
something permanent won't work well.

Sample (not my exact one) valve showing screws. See #1

Wedge of toothpick? :-/
Fixed! Three O-rings, lube and all screws snuged up. The one weak
seated screw is not leaking.

That screw is for mounting the low voltage actuator - one of four
screws. The SS screw does go into the valve housing.

Ready for summer. Nice cool dip in the fresh pool.

Thanks for comments..
