Before I do something I'll regret I thought I'd asked the forum if anyone has tackled this before. My wife has decided that I need to make stopping a dripping faucet a priority. I thought it would be a quick job but after not being able to budge a nut that hasn't been touched in 40 years I became worried that I might end up breaking things.
Has anyone taken out the valve stem and replaced the washer on a late 70's trawler? I'm a bit concerned that these valves don't come apart the same way as "modern" valves? Right now I have it soaking with liquid wrench.
Any ideas? Here are some pictures.
