I've got a 3/4" ball valve going to my water heater which ever since it was turned now slowly drips. After doing some research I saw the thing to do was tighten the packing nut but it is actually so loose that when I grabbed it the nut slid halfway off. I am not sure if threading corroded off of something or what but if I didn't know any better I'd say this nut wasn't the right size.
What are my options? Is it possible to find a replacement nut? Cleaning all the rust/calcium has made the leaking a bit worse I think...
Thanks
