hello i have a lever stop tap attached to compression fittings.
the tap body and c fittings seem to be loose in the sense that
the body turns a bit when putting pressure
on the lever. there are no leaks.
should i leave it or turn it further?

many thanks

It may be that the compression fittings have already been overtightened and the olives have crushed the pipe.

If the fitting is moving on the pipe, I'm surprised its not leaking already.
