Hi,
You are the one who put it in. You are the one who should know best
what's going on.
Good advice except: Ever try to take one apart? The only time I
succeeded is after I dug it up, put it in a vice and used a BIG pipe
wrench. they are screwed together so tight you can't dissassemble in
place. At least I haven't succeded with 4 of mine and I tried them
all.
If I ever replace one of my bad ones, I will take it apart and
reassemble with reasonable torque before I install it.
