Hi All
Came across a problem today - changing a tap washer of all things. I've changed dozens before, but this one was odd.
Very old kitchen circa 1960, red Formica everywhere. Tap looked a bit like the schematic here;
The top of the tap had a plastic insert indicating hot or cold (green & red in this case). No way would this insert come out, it appeared to be a permanent plastic moulding.
I can't see why the tap would have a grub screw securing it from the side and yet another securing it from the top as well, but the top of the tap refused to come off.
Was it just jammed from age? Or does that insert mean a grub screw from above as well as the side?
