Leaky hose bib
Hey I've got a similar problem but there doesn't seem to be a good diagram of this part. It started with a leaky hose bib which I attempted to dismantle and repair. The picture shows where the leak is coming from.
I turned off the water supply, removed the screw on the faucet handle and loosened the packing nut.
I then attempted to loosen the nut behind it (which is where the leak is). Here the stickiness occurs. Attempting to loosen that nut simply rotated the entire hose bib and no amount of force would budge it (possibly soldered on). Also the handle wouldn't rotate any more beyond full open to pull it off.
Some people have suggested just cutting the hose bib and putting a standard one on there. But if the pipe is cut, than the threads are gone and I don't see how to get a standard faucet on there (aside from welding).
Thanks in advance for the advice.
