FYI-When taking that brass nut on the bib out, use Fixall Penetrent. It does amazing things with any corrosion. I soaked the nut 2 weeks in advance. Once 1 week and then again a week later. Also, when pulling out the faucet innards spray some silicone in the hole first. It will help with removing the rubber o-ringed valve.

Thanks for the great video. Followed your instructions precisely. Unfortunately, my faucet is still leaking. I swapped out the Washer Assembly and Spring for the new one from Amazon (Eastman Model # 45418), I used Plumbers Grease on the Washer Assembly, the Stem, the Fiber Washer. I even used a Brass Brush to clean the threads and a towel to remove any excess mineral deposits. I reinserted the Stem, and followed your advice and used a 9/16 Socket Wrench head to push the Fiber Washer while inserting the Stem to make sure it was pushed to its seat. Made sure the Packing Nut was tight, and put the Handle back on. Turned the water back on, and sadly still leaking. I actually took the whole thing apart 2 more times to see if i made any obvious mistakes. Nothing i could see. I wound up cracking the handle in the square shaped portion which turns the Stem trying to tighten a bit too much. I eventually resorted to needle nose pliers to grib the square part of the stem and try to tighten it more. The best i could do is get it to drip a bit less. ChatGPT thinks the Valve Seat at the back of the Faucet is corroded or worn. It recommends cleaning the seat or using a Grinder to try to remove imperfections. Unfortunately that's impossible with the Nibco 90 since the Valve Seat appears to be part of the Faucet itself and cant be accesssed unless the entire faucet is removed. I'm at a loss of what else i can do. Do you have any advice? P.S. Ultimately, still a great video and I'm glad it's helped a bunch ot people.
@thisoldmobilehomeinthewood8434 3 ай бұрын
It sounds like you did everything right and ChatGPT could be right, sometimes when a faucet leaks too long it wears a groove in the seat, they have tools that will resurface the seat but not all faucets can be reconditioned that way, you might be forced in buying a new faucet assembly. I’m sorry it didn’t work for you, you didn’t do anything wrong. Thanks for watching we appreciate it:)

@thisoldmobilehomeinthewood8434 I see. Sigh. 😕 There comes the point when things just can't be fixed anymore. Plumber coming tomorrow. Maybe he has a secret technique I'm unaware of. Here's hoping. Thanks again for the great video. I think your video has helped Eastman sell a bunch of those Washer Assemblies so they should consider sponsoring you. 😉 And credit to ChatGPT. It never ceases to surprise me the breadth of its ability to analyze and distill useful information.
@davidjuliowang4646 2 ай бұрын
@@thisoldmobilehomeinthewood8434 I have an update on my Nibco 90. Success! Drip stopped! The fix was actually very easy. It was simply a matter of replacing the old "Fiber Washer" that sits at the opposite end of the Valve Stem from the Washer Assembly. I should have figured it out myself, but I ended up calling a Plumber and when he removed the Fiber Washer it was clear it needed to be replaced (even had a crack in it). He inserted a new Rubber Washer and the dripping has stopped! He took a look at the Valve Seat at the back of the hose bib using a flashlight and said it looked pretty good to him, so that wasn't the issue. That said, according to ChatGPT, the new Rubber Washer has probably caused the Valve Stem to have better alignment within the length of the hose bib and thus sitting more square against the Valve Stem. Additionally, the new Rubber Washer is thicker and thus when the Packing Nut is screwed tight and proper, the Washing Assembly is sufficiently pressed against the Valve Seat to create a watertight seal. So, just a simple extra piece would have solved my problem, but I did learn. Calling a Plumber is certainly expensive, but the fellow I met was a really good guy, and he helped massively with some other plumbing issues, so it was worth the visit. Once again, thanks for the very helpful video. Maybe add the suggestion to replace the "Fiber Washer" with a new, properly sized "Rubber Washer" in the video's description. Cheers!

Tried to order off your Amazon link, never arrived. Went on Ebay, presto, arrived in 11 days. Turns out is the very same seller, but had to pay a few dollars more on Ebay, shipping was free. Was not what I needed for my Nibco 52 of 1970's vintage, which is still in service thanks to low reactivity well water lacking added chemicals. Repaired mine using a 1/4 washer and some graphite valve stem packing. Mine has no vacuum break, and the packing nut is 9/16th. My seat screw was like welded in there, guarantee had I tried to use the 40 year old plastic handle to twist out, would have crumbled in my hand. Sprayed lots of WD 40 back in the tube, and worked the valve stem back and forth with 1/4 inch open end wrench until it finally broke lose. Mine also turns out CCW direction. Also, had to remove all the old hard packing with a pick before the stem would slide out. Special shout out to fletchlee49 who left an excellent comment, particularly to make use of a back up wrench. One nearly disastrous mistake I made on my Nibco 52 was over-packing the valve stem, as that model used conventional graphite valve stem packing, (Danco number 80793 or equivalent) and THEN wrenching down too tight, started to strip the threads. Realized my mistake, removed some of the packing, and luckily mine had lots of threads left. With all that said this video was immensely helpful in repairing my older and less fancy but similar faucet. This saved crawling under a tight crawl space, not even professional plumbers enjoy going there! Thanks a million.

Some additional tips from someone who just did this today with my 30 year old Nibco 90 faucet in back of house. 1) while the vid is educational, its important that you get the correct tools and not f'up your system. They dont make these anymore and a screw up will mean possible contractor and $300. 15/16 th socket head for the packing nut behind the handle. Use 5/16 or 8mm socket on stem handle for the handle screw. 2) My packing nut was almost fused (30 yrs) , I used wd 40 and then small butane grill lighter torch to heat up the area around the nut. Secure the faucet itself with left hand , etc. when unscrewing (so much torque that you dont want to risk the faucet rotating). These anti freeze faucets are about 10 or 12 inches long and may be soldered to your plumbing so you dont want to risk twisting or breaking it away from the internal plumbing. 3) use wire brush and/or steal wool to clean the corrosion off the male and female threads of the packing nut before replacing. Also, coat with some wd 40 when putting back in. 4) IMPORTANT: if you get the stem out completely, you may think your valve on the tip is a different version because it might be so corroded. I had to unscrew the small screw at end then pull off all the old rubber... it pretty much disintegrated anyway; but my valve was stuck on the end of the stem so use small screwdriver or locking pliers, etc if you need to twist off the valve disc at the very end. BE VERY CAREFULL: you dont tear up or crack the soldering or threads at the end of the stem. Also, be very careful you dont tear up the fiber packing washer that is just behind the packing nut. 5) once I got the back rubber off and the small metal disc away from the end of the stem, the small metal valve piece could finally be pulled free of the stem. But I was thinking it was not the same version as the vids because there was no spring! Look close: the spring was there but it was compressed and stuck inside the end of the stem so i had to pry that out with a dental pick. 6) Use CLR or other calcium remover to clean the inside and outside of the end of the stem before replacing the new spring and snapping the new metal valve piece back in 7) I used light dab of silicone plumbers grease on the rubber part of the new valve and q tip rub some wd 40 on the inside where the new spring will be. IMPORTANT: DO NOT USE PETROLEUM BASED GREASE on the valve rubber. use silicone grease lightly. 8) dont over tighten the packing nut , go slow and just make it reasonably snug. 9) Turn your water back on and test 9b) if you accidently tore up the fiber packing nut washer when removing or replacing, they sell some material called Packing Nut Rope that may help to create a seal around the stem near handle and prevent leaks from flowing around the base of the handle. good luck. for a 30 year old faucet, these vids helped and I saved $300. My total parts cost(new socket head, small butane grill torch) plus the Amazon valve mentioned in the vid. was a total of $16

I have a timer for an irrigation and sprinkler set up attached to the faucet so I have to leave it open and running. The issue I'm running into is water leaking out of the back of the plastic handle. It doesn't really leak other than that. Is that something I can fix by replacing the washer or do these old faucets need that specific one?

Hi, sounds like you have two choices, one you can try to tighten that nut behind the handle that will put more pressure on the packing washer, if that don’t do it you’ll need to go to a hardware store and buy a packing washer, you need to take the handle off to do it, then the packing nut then behind that is the packing washer, I would turn the water off to that faucet if you can.

If you have access to the pipe inside the wall you could check for leaks, you must leave the faucet free of any attached hoses in the wintertime to keep the pipe from freezing.

If the faucet is split it will be time to replace the whole faucet unfortunately:( Thank you for watching.

Thanks for showing the repair. but I would have used WD40 to remove the long stem. I also would liked to see more details about replacing the old with with the new part at the end of the long threaded stem (which in my case rusted in and was not easy to pull out at all. In my case, I have to find out how to make the new part with rubber gaskets/sealers and the screw to stay inside the end after compressing the spring. I have to get the parts kit so the answer will be included, but as for the old one, there is NO thread to screw the part in with the spring compressed. Maybe the answer will be clear when I have the kit, but it would have been helpful to explain how the new part stays inside the compressed spring. In any case, I appreciate what you have shown because your were the only I have found on KZbin that fit my situation.

Hi, thank you for watching my video, you can use WD40 to loosen the stem and nuts if you wish, I didn’t have to, as for the replacement parts just like the beginning of my video you just pull it out, the spring should come out then install the new spring and the the brass valve assembly, it don’t screw in it just pushes in and locks in place, if yours won’t stay in just use your fingers to lightly squeeze the tangs on the end of the shaft but be careful you don’t want to break them. It’s a light friction fit, no screwing anything in place, lubricate with silicone grease the threads and by the rubber washer like I showed in the video. Best of luck to you, I know you can do it.
