I find the best thing for that is PTFE tape. Undo the joint and clean up the threads, wrap with PTFE tape before reassembling. Works wonders, fills every little gap. I use it as a matter of course even for a new joint.

Yep, it's good stuff. When I was a lab technician we used it all the time on joints.

Good morning - Good job on the plumbing repair Bree. It's a dull and damp start to the day here. A bit cooler than this time yesterday too (+7ºC).

A bike ride to my brother's place later. He's not likely to get home from hospital any time soon. Need to keep an eye on his house. Spotted a water leak there yesterday. Stopped it but need to make sure it stayed that way.

Have a good day everyone. :-)

Wow. That sounds like a lot of work.

I can't say that I have ever experienced the situation myself. I suppose I have been fortunate, or just maybe never encountered that brand of stem.

At any rate, I am glad you found the issue, and was able to get it resolved. :-) Another job, well done!

Good Wednesday, Shamrock. (y)

I've seen him on other threads a few times, but he hasn't post to this thread in quiet some time.

I have some PTFE tape and use it for tap glands and threaded joints. This one is one of those plastic screw-on joints that tightens up on a rubber washer. I think it needs a new washer. I have a selection of those but the trouble is everything in the house is very old and I feel that once I disturb that joint, it will be a 'slippery slope situation'. I might try unscrewing the joint and replacing the washer anyway ..but not today. :-)

    fully 'Windows 11 ready' laptop. Windows 10 C: partition migrated from my old unsupported 'main machine' then upgraded to 11. A test migration ran Insider builds for 2 months. When 11 was released on 5th October 2021 it was re-imaged back to 10 and was offered the upgrade in Windows Update on 20th October. Windows Update offered the 22H2 Feature Update on 20th September 2022. It got the 23H2 Feature Update on 4th November 2023 through Windows Update, 24H2 on 3rd October 2024 through Windows Update by setting the Target Release Version for 24H2, and 25H2 on 30th September 2025 through Windows Update by setting the Target Release Version for 25H2.

    UPDATE - 11 April 2026: due to mechanical deterioration this PC has been retired from active duty. The OS with all software and files has been migrated to my System Seven in 'Other systems' to carry on as my general purpose 'main machine'.

    I've now clean installed 25H2 and used Garlin's scripts to update Secure Boot to CA 2023 and revoke the PCA 2011 certificates. It's new role is to test secure boot issues.

This afternoon's walk back to pick it up was much more pleasant. Some blue skies and the sun was out. Felt like Spring was in the air.....

    fully 'Windows 11 ready' laptop. Windows 10 C: partition migrated from my old unsupported 'main machine' then upgraded to 11. A test migration ran Insider builds for 2 months. When 11 was released on 5th October 2021 it was re-imaged back to 10 and was offered the upgrade in Windows Update on 20th October. Windows Update offered the 22H2 Feature Update on 20th September 2022. It got the 23H2 Feature Update on 4th November 2023 through Windows Update, 24H2 on 3rd October 2024 through Windows Update by setting the Target Release Version for 24H2, and 25H2 on 30th September 2025 through Windows Update by setting the Target Release Version for 25H2.

    UPDATE - 11 April 2026: due to mechanical deterioration this PC has been retired from active duty. The OS with all software and files has been migrated to my System Seven in 'Other systems' to carry on as my general purpose 'main machine'.

    I've now clean installed 25H2 and used Garlin's scripts to update Secure Boot to CA 2023 and revoke the PCA 2011 certificates. It's new role is to test secure boot issues.

As do I, she was on TF for a while and then did the complete disappearing act. Very worrying, especially as she drove a fast car.
