Hi Guys,
15mm copper pipe running to wc with isolating valve with integral 1/2" connector, isolating valve will switch of OK.
The problem is that when isolating valve is open there is a leak between the nut and plastic bottom entry inlet valve.
Have tried everything to fix stop this and have had to admit defeat!! changed fibre washer as the old one was damaged, 1/2" connector seems to screw onto plastic valve OK but wont seal, changed isolating valve thinking something wrong with it, but no joy!
Am I right in thinking that the only option is to try and replace inlet valve?
So B***** annoying, 10 min job has turned into a nightmare and dont know why!
Lookf forward to your advice
