I have a 20 year old Kohler Taboret Rite-Temp pressure balancing valve shower faucet with lever handle. I need to replace the valve, but I can't get the lever handle off. The handle is a 9/16 inch hollow tube and to remove it you need to loosen a screw that is 2 5/16 inch down inside the tube. I have tried loosening the stuck screw by soaking with vinegar, WD-40 and Liquid Wrench, but no luck. Obviously it is hard to get at the screw down inside the tube. Before I cut the tube off so I can drill the screw out, any ideas on how to loosen the screw? Many thanks.
