Default Weeping rad' valve, can I tighten it ?


There is a very slight weepage from one of the c/h radiator valves. It
is from where the copper pipe goes into the base of the valve. There is
a nut there so will a little persuasion with a spanner tighten it just
enough to stop the weep ?
If so, which way does it go - screw down onto the pipe or screw up onto
the valve body ?

Thanks

Brian
