Hi,
I am a homeowner and this is my first post. I have a 300-series Mansfield sillcock that was leaking. I removed the handle, unscrewed the plastic bonnet, and pulled out the entire assembly. I saw the rubber packing had completely disintegrated. I bought a replacement kit 630-7755, and replaced everything. No problems, except when finished, the handle was just about impossible to turn! I tried loosening the bonnet, which makes the handle easier to turn, but then it just leaks.
Any ideas on what I may have done wrong?
Thanks,
Nelson
