Hello
Any help is great!
So, I swapped a siamp Monaco fill valve, like for like & it failed, I fiddled with it & all ok then failed again. A new one arrived yesterday, swapped it today & yes you’ve guessed it, it doesn’t work! Even after trying & testing for an hour it won’t work!
The valve is in a concealed cistern so it’s small. Side entry.
The connection through the cistern is 3/8” brass then it goes to 1/2”.
The connection inside the cistern is fixed to the 3/8 shank and won’t come off so the only option is to remove the 1/2” part & push it out going inside the cistern.
It’s stuck fast. I’ve no idea if it actually screws off but to get it through the cistern it must’ve be screwed on.
Any thoughts on getting it off. Cutting is an option but it’s fiddly with not much room.
Cheers all
