How do you tighten loose idle valve?
The Idle Air Control valve is fastened to the top of the throttle body with 2 bolts that have an 8mm head. Tighten them clockwise.
Why the shower head still leaks when turn off the water?
The valve in the shower control needs to be renewed.
What are the common signs of a leaky shower valve and how can it be fixed?
Common signs of a leaky shower valve include water dripping from the shower head when the water is turned off, low water pressure, and difficulty controlling the temperature. To fix a leaky shower valve, you may need to replace the valve cartridge or seals, tighten any loose connections, or call a plumber for professional assistance.
What is the purpose of a shower valve seat and how does it contribute to the functionality of a shower valve?
The purpose of a shower valve seat is to create a tight seal between the valve and the faucet, preventing leaks and controlling the flow of water. It contributes to the functionality of the shower valve by ensuring that water only flows when the valve is open and stops when it is closed, allowing for precise control of water temperature and pressure.
What is the process for shower control valve replacement?
The process for shower control valve replacement involves turning off the water supply, removing the old valve, installing the new valve, and testing for leaks. It is important to follow manufacturer instructions and use the proper tools for a successful replacement.

How do I properly operate the shower on-off valve to control the water flow in my bathroom?
To control the water flow in your bathroom, turn the shower on-off valve clockwise to increase the water flow and counterclockwise to decrease it. Make sure to adjust the valve slowly to find the desired water pressure.
How do you keep shower temperature from changing when someone flushes the toilet or uses another sink?
Your water pressure is low. Consequently, when cold water is diverted to another application such as a toilet or a sink, the amount of cold water available at the shower mixing valve decreases as the low pressure is unable to keep up with the shower's demand. This causes a hotter mixture at the shower head. The solution is to either improve the cold water supply to the shower or to replace the shower control valve with a temperature compensating type. Pressure balancing is the cheapest and simply changes the shower temperature according to the pressure in the cold and hot water lines. When the toilet or sink is used, reduced pressure to the shower valve is detected and the valve reduces the hot water pressure, thereby maintaining the temperature. The more sophisticated approach is a thermostatic shower control valve. These are significantly more expensive, but will not reduce the pressure at the shower head (a drawback of the pressure balancing valve). The thermostatic valve would be required when one shower control valve is operating several shower heads. Moen, Kohler and Delta all make both types of control valves. They can be readily obtained from a local plumbing supply house.
What is the purpose of a shut off valve for a shower and how does it function to control the water flow in the shower system?
The purpose of a shut off valve for a shower is to control the flow of water to the showerhead. It functions by either opening or closing to allow or stop the water flow, depending on whether you want to use the shower or not. This helps in conserving water and also allows for easy maintenance or repairs of the shower system.
How do I properly adjust the shower handle valve to control the water temperature and flow in my bathroom?
To adjust the shower handle valve, turn it clockwise for hotter water and counterclockwise for colder water. To control the flow, adjust the handle to increase or decrease the water pressure.
How can I tighten a shower head properly?
To tighten a shower head properly, use an adjustable wrench to securely tighten the connection between the shower arm and the shower head. Turn the wrench clockwise until the shower head is firmly in place. Be careful not to overtighten to avoid damaging the shower head or the plumbing.
