Valve taps often occur as a result of a misalignment in the fitting they are in, or a worn out valve seat. In many cases, a new valve spring and cam adjustment will fix the problem, but if it the result of a worn out valve seat, it will have to be machined.

Curb box, curb-stop box, curb-valve box, Buffalo box?

The "curb stop" is the valve that is on the service from the main into your house. i.e. The 8" main in the street has a saddle tap with your 3/4" service line on it. Within 8 ft of the connection between your service and the main is your curb stop. The curb stop is a valve buried underground. In order to open/close the valve a curb box is placed over the valve. It is essentially a metal tube that lets you open and close the curb stop.
