I would first pour several buckets of water down the drain without running the tub faucet to see if the drain is leaking. Then I would with a spray bottle direct water around the drain lever/overflow plate, tub spout and valve to see if that is where the leak is. I would then move to the valve itself to see if that is leaking checking packings and the diverter. If nothing shows at that point check tub tiling and possible water spilling on the floor. If water is appearing and you cannot determine where it is coming from you may have to open a wall or ceiling to determine. I also try measuring where the leak is and comparing the measurements to locations of tub parts. In any case I try my best to find the cause before cutting walls and ceilings unless the ceiling is already shot from the leak then open it up and look. Wall openings are done on the wall behind the tub valve usually a closet or bedroom wall, never break out the tub wall around the valve.
if it is a slow drip or sepage, it will make, @ particles in the water will fix it, if it is a steady drip then you will have to take it apart and wrap the pipe fitting with teflon tape, or use a pipe sealer on the threads,
When a person encounters a natural gas leak they should open the windows and isolate the concern if the leak is faint, but if the odor is strong then you must leave quickly get yourself away from the leak and call the utility company or 911. Calling the utility will also help with a faint gas leak.
One condition caused by malfunction of the adrenal gland is Addison's disease. Addison's disease occurs when the adrenal glands do not produce enough cortisol and sometimes aldosterone, leading to symptoms such as fatigue, weight loss, low blood pressure, and darkening of the skin. It is a chronic condition that requires lifelong treatment with hormone replacement therapy.
The point pressure leak test, also known as the Valsalva leak test, measures the amount of abdominal pressure required to induce leakage
either tighten the valve cover bolts, or replace the gaskets.
Valve covers generally leak. Replace them with rubber valve cover gaskets,, not cork. Tighten bolts finger tight with 1/4 ratchet then 1/4 tirn to tighten down.
often the schreader valve inside the valve stem is loose, a special insert wrench is needed to tighten.
Piping hand book decribes that a spacer ring used in the lantern ring type of packing chamer to permit lubrication of the packing, purging of the shaft or stem, or a leak-off system.
Worn gasket inside slipping into and out of position too easily. The packing gland (nut) needs to be tightned slightly
It depends on where the gas is leaking. If it is from the regulator connection sometimes just readjusting and tightening the grooved nut will stop the leak. Turn off the valve and remove the regulator. Check for dirt particles and damage to the seat and regulator bulb (the fat part that fits against the seat), open and close the valve quickly to blow out any loose particles, reattach the regulator. Check to see if the gas is still escaping. If it is, the regulator bulb or the valve seat may be damaged. All cylinders have a fuseable plug and if it is leaking from there evacuate the area immediately and call emergency personnel. If it is from the valve area you may be able to stop the leak by tightening the packing nut at the base of the valve stem. With the regulator attached open the cylinder valve slightly and tighten the packing nut. Check to see if this stops the leak. If immediate attempts fail, evacuate the area.
the signs of a valve cover leak are oil on the engine oil is the only thing that can leak from a leaky valve cover
Is the leak occurring when filling the tub or all of the time? If during then your source is in the pipe from the valve handles to the spout. If at the valve then I would give some attention to the stem packing.
Normally oil leaking from the top of an engine is a sign that you have a leak at a valve cover. The cover may be loose or the gasket may be defective. Tighten the valve cover bolts to no more than 5 lb/ft of torque. If that does not stop the leak, the gasket will need replacing.
Increase the gland steam pressure if air is leaking in. If gland steam is leaking out, replace the seals. If the leak is in the casing, repair or replace the damaged parts.
It is sometimes a problem but not necessarily due to the material the valve covers are constructed of. Check all the bolts holding the valve covers on an tighten them to exactly 5 lb/ft of torque and no more. If that does not stop the leak, then the valve cover gaskets will need replacing. If the oil leak is very slight, I would just leave it alone, as this can be an expensive repair unless you do it yourself.
