i took it off as the overwhelming smell came back again and i thought there might be a whole lot of gunge still on those sink pipes (built up before I moved in) so the plumber recently chopped an end off because of this problem and he fitted one of those things that suck on and then another screw thing which takes a cap- otherwsie all the water would go straight out the end- this is what it is now doing as i cant for the life of me get this screw thing back on- even after an hour of trying- its a total enigma- i need to get this cap back on- because i have to empty the washing up outside till I do...its a little white thing with screws with red suction rings inside- one end goes onto the sawn off pipe and the other end has a smaller bit fitted into it so it can take a cap...... please help as i REALLY wish i didnt try and clean it all now.....and when ive sorted this problem out id really like to know what to do with the drain smell that invades my kitchen now that i know its not from the sink pies alone...I need to go to my housing association and tell them what they need to do for me..i cant justs ay I have smelly drains as they will say- clean the fridge out then its probably that-lol... and i know its the drains!!! I would appreciate the help... many thanks.....
