the jumper has fallen put of one of the taps I have been freeing off and lubricating. All the others have been firmly retained in place and I have not tried to clean and lubricate their jumper pins.
I looked in my "Ladybird first book of Plumbing" and it says that they usually fall out of mains pressure taps but not out of tank-fed taps.
this one is indeed a sink pillar tap (although it is tank fed hot at just over 1bar).
Why is this, and does it matter?
