NIBCO 90 outdoor hosebib drip repair- part broken off inside spigot

This should be a pretty easy fix and it actually was. Lots of great videos out there and this isnt one of them. Part of the stem broke inside of the spigot, watch how I removed it.

Some additional tips from someone who just did this today with my 30 year old Nibco 90 faucet in back of house. 1) while the vid is educational, its important that you get the correct tools and not f'up your system. They dont make these anymore and a screw up will mean possible contractor and $300. 15/16 th socket head for the packing nut behind the handle. Use 5/16 or 8mm socket on stem handle for the handle screw. 2) My packing nut was almost fused (30 yrs) , I used wd 40 and then small butane grill lighter torch to heat up the area around the nut. Secure the faucet itself with left hand , etc. when unscrewing (so much torque that you dont want to risk the faucet rotating). These anti freeze faucets are about 10 or 12 inches long and may be soldered to your plumbing so you dont want to risk twisting or breaking it away from the internal plumbing. 3) use wire brush and/or steal wool to clean the corrosion off the male and female threads of the packing nut before replacing. Also, coat with some wd 40 when putting back in. 4) IMPORTANT: if you get the stem out completely, you may think your valve on the tip is a different version because it might be so corroded. I had to unscrew the small screw at end then pull off all the old rubber... it pretty much disintegrated anyway; but my valve was stuck on the end of the stem so use small screwdriver or locking pliers, etc if you need to twist off the valve disc at the very end. BE VERY CAREFULL: you dont tear up or crack the soldering or threads at the end of the stem. Also, be very careful you dont tear up the fiber packing washer that is just behind the packing nut. 5) once I got the back rubber off and the small metal disc away from the end of the stem, the small metal valve piece could finally be pulled free of the stem. But I was thinking it was not the same version as the vids because there was no spring! Look close: the spring was there but it was compressed and stuck inside the end of the stem so i had to pry that out with a dental pick. 6) Use CLR or other calcium remover to clean the inside and outside of the end of the stem before replacing the new spring and snapping the new metal valve piece back in 7) I used light dab of silicone plumbers grease on the rubber part of the new valve and q tip rub some wd 40 on the inside where the new spring will be. IMPORTANT: DO NOT USE PETROLEUM BASED GREASE on the valve rubber. use silicone grease lightly. 8) dont over tighten the packing nut , go slow and just make it reasonably snug. 9) Turn your water back on and test 9b) if you accidently tore up the fiber packing nut washer when removing or replacing, they sell some material called Packing Nut Rope that may help to create a seal around the stem near handle and prevent leaks from flowing around the base of the handle. good luck. for a 30 year old faucet, these vids helped and I saved $300. My total parts cost(new socket head, small butane grill torch) plus the Amazon valve mentioned in the vid. was a total of $16
