Default extra 3/8 shut off valve for sink faucet?

Y'know, the C clamp is the right solution. Thing is, the OP has the wrong
problem.

What do you expect from a Moaners Hub web reader?

I have observed this setup on more than one occasion. I believe it is
possible to crimp the existing supply line, or use a C-clamp on the
existing supply line, to stop the flow of water without shutting off the
water to the building.



Would you care to explain this process to me?

The OP has a shut off valve that will not shut off. This valve is half
buried in a wall so he can't easily remove it. He wants to add another
valve in series - outside of the wall - so that he can turn the water
off to one fixture.

Where are you suggesting that he place this C-clamp which will allow
him to accomplish his goal?
