Hi,
Speculative question:
I have 1/4 turn lever taps on the bathroom basin. The splines on the cold tap are failing (lever spins). I've cleaned the lever and valve splines and put a few drops of Rocol Threadlock on in an attempt to bond the two togther
- in a way that could probably be sheared with a sharp tap if needed.
Should this not be sucessful, I do have a spare tap. How hard is it to take the valve out the top of the tap? (The spare tap is identical except for being 1/2" instead of 3/4" - pretty sure the valve body is the same).
Is it a case of spanner on brass valve flats and unscrew - or am I likely to be caught out by something weird?
Cheers
Tim
