Excellent video! Bonus section: For about $6, get a 23mm 6-point socket for the exterior nut…makes removal and replacement a bit easier. Also, instead of using a screwdriver to get the packing washer back in, use another smaller socket to apply even pressure and maybe a block of wood to help push. Cheers!
Thank you for your great work on this subject and the video!! This is exactly the method I needed and on the Woodford Model 17. Every thing went according to the video, except that dang anti siphon part. I had to take it apart twice and it still seeps. I was afraid to tighten it any more. It worked fine before, but I had the new parts and decided to change it anyway, LOL
I have used YOU TUBE for years.. This is the BEST step by step video I have ever followed.. Good Job!!!😀
Thank you for the kind words. I’ve been doing TH-cam for a while now and it’s tough making how to videos as sometimes you go into much detail and sometimes you don’t do enough. It’s hard to win. Haha
Excellent video. The bag of parts I received noted that 2 different check valves are included in the bag and the bevel should be used for "faucets dated 04/98 or later, see packing nut". It also says that the EPDM packing can be installed in any direction.
I just used the parts that matched up with what I removed.
Thank you! 🎉
You’re welcome. Glad it helped.
Excellent and comprehensive video
Thank you. I try to be as comprehensive as possible but also realize that can be boring.
Thank you so much!
You’re welcome.
Wow! I completed this today. What a project. My handle was calcified/welded to the rod. I was able to get the rod out with the handle attached and had to use a jigsaw to cut it off in a vice, and then channel locks and a sledgehammer to eventually set it free.
Hell of a project, but all is well and my faucet no longer leaks. I will definitely be putting anti seize on the threads of the faucet handle.
If I had to guess my spigot was 20 years old and never rebuilt before.
Yes. Both mine were stuck. Took some pounding to get it off.
I just did this last weekend. The end of the plunger was caked in lime. I soaked the rod in CLR to dissolve it, and it cleaned up nicely.
Nice good tip
I see white on the threads of the last nut you put on, does it have Teflon tape on the threads?
Those floats have a mind of their own. Wish it wasn't plastic.
I noticed that. It’s like they have a specific spot it likes to be in
Thanks very much. One final question. You said you still needed to tighten something to make it stop leaking but never showed us what you tightened. What did you tighten please?
The nut that crushes the rubber washer. Where the handle goes through. If water is still leaking at all through that tighten that nut until it stops.
@@DIYReid Got it, thanks!
Try using wd40
Good tip
