ok. I soaked the "moving part" in a cleaning solution (didn't have descaling, which i wanted, in case there's mineral built inside; used degreaser). washed, blew strongly. applied silicone. resealed with teflon all connection points. Now I get to fill a 5gal in 2:45 instead of 4+ mins... which...

Thanks. That is a screw - I attach a photo from the other side.

~45 sec without the inner part of the spigot/valve. so almost 7gpm. which already makes more sense. Thanks for these photos and explanations!!! I'll get some silicone to lube the o-rings. Do you think the little-dry O ring can affect the flow that much? that's ~4 times slower...

it took a little over 4 mins with the spigot... so about 1.2gpm. way too slow

Thanks everyone. I'll get a flex hose and hose clamp and measure the gpm for both flows. Just to clarify - a year ago, on the same hose and faucet, the flow was substantially stronger. I have two drip systems connected to it and a garden hose, and used to get good pressure.

Thank you guys for the helpful answers. I opened the faucet and indeed without it there's a much stronger flow; i didn't measure it in GPM but it's at least twice stronger. I opened-closed the shut-off to full power, trying to release something that might be stuck there. Washed the inner part of...

Hi all, I'm new to this forum which I found by looking for solution for the same problem I have. Our outdoor anti frost faucet has very low pressure. I turned off the shut off valve, opened and took some photos - see below. Any advice? Thanks in advance. ps edit - with some gentle force I've...
