Re: In-line tap question

Swap it for a lever ball valve. This will resolve the screwdriver
nonsense and is also full bore so the tap will work better.

Here's an example.

B&Q and plumber's merchants have them.

Good so far, and advice to be acted upon.

Unless it's anything other than a standard tap the bore of the tap
won't be much different to the service valve, still fit a full bore
valve though. A lot better for ease of use.
