Thanks for this video and the Amazon link for the kit. I bought a kit at Ace, but it didn't have the correct graphite washer. I don't know what I'd do without KZread tutorials! 🤗

@dwestman62 thanks for taking the time to share

Thanks for the links and video! This helped me a ton because I have this same one and needed that kit. I did have issues getting my green cap off, the piece inside was stuck

I followed your instructions and fixed my faucet for less than $16! Thank you!

I know what you mean.... I have one in the back of my house leaking now so I will be completing the same exercise again

I am following your very helpful video to repair mine. I am at 0:45 time point in your video, but can't go beyond that. The valve stem isn't coming out even after turning and pulling with a wrench. Any suggestion? Spray WD40?

@DIYinspiredLewisBrantner

Hmmmm, my guess is it will come out..... my suggestion is just tug on it more as you turn it..... try that.

If the top cap has a little drip, it’s super tight. Should I use plumbing tape to fix the drip?

I replaced a second one at my place and the same thing happened. I took it apart again and saw I pinched the flapper part so I reused the old one..... that worked for me

For positive vibes bro 😅

Dont you have to tighten with a tool that piece as well on minute 8:54? I ask because mine was leaking a bit of water out through it for 2-3 seconds everytime I closed the faucet so I tighten it a bit with my tool and it stopped leaking.

Yes, this clear plastic piece needed tightened too. I had to go back and tighten it also.

My spigot looks similar to yours except mine doesn't have that syphon knob on top. Would that make a difference on a valve stem repair?

@DIYinspiredLewisBrantner

Great question..... not sure. Maybe you could take yours apart to see if the parts look the same. You could put it back together if it isn't. Just make sure you have the water shut off inside

@@DIYinspiredLewisBrantner Thank you. It doesn't leak but part of the stem that's connected to the nut you take off is broken and the handle doesn't fit right. So I'm wanting to replace the valve stem and nut, if it's possible.

​@@DIYinspiredLewisBrantnerSo mine says it's a Prier C-144/C-244 on the airwave cap. I received the kit and they don't look exactly the same parts. Is the kit I ordered a multiple type fita?

@@1jantheman1 correct, under the silver cap, that plastic piece needed tightened up some more. As you saw in the video, I only placed that finger tight. I removed the silver cap and then tightened it more, then put the silver cap back on and it was good to go. Thanks for clarifying
