I'm not sure how the threads could be tight if the heli-coil is gone, but you need to start by trying to instal a new helicoil, with red loctite on it. It probably won't work, but try it.

Then loctite the stud in.

You will likely have to instal a time-sert, which is basically an oversized helicoil.
