I'm trying that. I did the fix last night, and the valve was still leaking this morning. Tiny leak, but one that I can't live with. I'll give it a couple more days. I wonder if rubbing plumber's grease on it from the outside would do anything?

On my list of "things to do" is to re-plumb the entire house with PEX so I stop getting flakes of rust from these old galvanized pipes messing up fixtures.
