Or just replace the seat altogether? Save the water. Tom


Where the removal tool needs to grip the seat, those surfaces are completely
stripped. Looks like my predecessor tried to use a screwdriver or something.
It's a disaster. In another thread, someone recommended something that looks
like a tapping tool, in reverse, but if I keep throwing money at this, and
it approaches maybe half the price of a nice, new Moen single-handle faucet,
I'll probably just say "enough is enough".
