  • We installed this frost free faucet over 25 years ago and it just started leaking so we had 2 choices, replace the faucet completely which is a ton of work or fix the faucet with new parts.
    We did some research and come to find out that NIBCO don't make the parts for our first generation faucet anymore, their parts supply for that faucet ran out in 2007 and the newer NIBCO faucets parts don't work for this model:(
    But I did some more research and I found a kit for it on Amazon:)
    I will leave the link to it below:

    Thank You For Watching We Really Appreciate it:)

    Replacing the vacuum breaker was not enough to stop the leak. Thank you for posting this video and the link to the replacement part.

    Just wanted to take a minute and say THANK YOU for making this video and linking the part. Thanks to this, I was able to fix our NIBCO 90, too. Because I knew what I was looking for, I was able to realize that the rubber stopper part was left behind when I removed the main part. Thankfully I had a long skinny grabber tool and was able to grab it out no problem. Now I can wash the boat, and get out on the lake!

    Thanks for showing the repair. but I would have used WD40 to remove the long stem.
    I also would liked to see more details about replacing the old with with the new part at the end of the long threaded stem (which in my case rusted in and was not easy to pull out at all.
    In my case, I have to find out how to make the new part with rubber gaskets/sealers and the screw to stay inside the end after compressing the spring. I have to get the parts kit so the answer will be included, but as for the old one, there is NO thread to screw the part in with the spring compressed. Maybe the answer will be clear when I have the kit, but it would have been helpful to explain how the new part stays inside the compressed spring.
    In any case, I appreciate what you have shown because your were the only I have found on RUclips that fit my situation.

      Hi, thank you for watching my video, you can use WD40 to loosen the stem and nuts if you wish, I didn’t have to, as for the replacement parts just like the beginning of my video you just pull it out, the spring should come out then install the new spring and the the brass valve assembly, it don’t screw in it just pushes in and locks in place, if yours won’t stay in just use your fingers to lightly squeeze the tangs on the end of the shaft but be careful you don’t want to break them.
      It’s a light friction fit, no screwing anything in place, lubricate with silicone grease the threads and by the rubber washer like I showed in the video. Best of luck to you, I know you can do it.

    Exactly what I was looking for! Thanks so much. Any idea what that packing crap is on the handle-end of the stem? I still have the metal washer that was in place however the thick material between that washer and the handle is disintegrating. Thanks again.

      It looks to be some kind of fiber packing washer, I wasn’t able to find that, mine was still good. If I can find that part I will post it here. Thanks for watching.

    I also have a Nibco 90 outside faucet just like yours on the great video you made. I replaced the valve seat rubber with the new spring as you did, the drip stopped. But my problem is a big leak behind the handle when running the faucet. My packing is securely stuck to the packing nut. I noticed yours was separated. My packing is worn smooth with no play in it. When I tighten the packing nut it doesn't feel like there is any resistance at the end like one should feel with packing. Any ideas on getting some new packing to try out and see if that fixes my issue. After reading your reply to another comment looks like i need some new fiber packing washer. Hope we find some.
    Thanks, rob

      Hi, they sell packing nut “string” at the hardware store, it’s a type of rope you wrap around the stem above the existing packing washer, then as you tighten the packing nut it should stop the leak around the stem, I don’t know where to get the original packing washer, it’s a weird fiber washer but plumbers use other items to stop the leaks. It’s called on Amazon: Packing nut string for faucet. Don’t give up you will fix it:)

    Hey great video. We have a Nibco 90 that started leaking only when the faucet is turned on, and we hear water pouring out only in the back behind the wall. It does not leak in the faucet spout area at all. what problem did you have before your replaced yours? Would new parts fix this problem? I have taken the stem out like you did, and the spring appears to be non existent and the metal part with the washer does not move back and forth.

    • @thisoldmobilehomeinthewood8434
      @thisoldmobilehomeinthewood8434  4 месяца назад +1

      Thanks for watching, ours leaked right at the spout, we couldn’t turn it off to stop the dripping and in the winter that would be bad because it would freeze. The kit we bought takes care of a dripping leaky faucet, it wouldn’t hurt to replace yours but the leaking back inside the wall is another problem, if you can get in there to see if it’s leaking water in the wall area then you’d be able to determine the fix. I’m sorry I can’t help you more without seeing the issue, I have faith you will find it and fix it:) Please keep us posted on what you find.

    Helpful video and I've ordered the part. I'm not sure its my problem though so I'll ask and see what you think if you have time to answer. I have a timer for an irrigation and sprinkler set up attached to the faucet so I have to leave it open and running. The issue I'm running into is water leaking out of the back of the plastic handle. It doesn't really leak other than that. Is that something I can fix by replacing the washer or do these old faucets need that specific one?

    • @thisoldmobilehomeinthewood8434
      @thisoldmobilehomeinthewood8434  19 дней назад

      Hi, sounds like you have two choices, one you can try to tighten that nut behind the handle that will put more pressure on the packing washer, if that don’t do it you’ll need to go to a hardware store and buy a packing washer, you need to take the handle off to do it, then the packing nut then behind that is the packing washer, I would turn the water off to that faucet if you can. Good luck and thanks for watching.

    I have mine out and it's identicle at the end. The difference is at the handle mine is an old school metal one and it is not coming off of that shaft. I doubt that's important. I have a washer kit so am going to try to just replace the washers on that piece instead of replacing the whole part. My question is how do you know if the pipe itself isn't cracked inside the wall? I had leaking outside at bottom of the bib (I think you call it ) but also water in the house! Tempted to put a wrench on it and try to screw it out of the wall but very afraid it's welded and will need a plumber I cannot afford. Any ideas on that would be really appreciated. Thank you!

    • @thisoldmobilehomeinthewood8434
      @thisoldmobilehomeinthewood8434  20 дней назад +1

      If you have access to the pipe inside the wall you could check for leaks, you must leave the faucet free of any attached hoses in the wintertime to keep the pipe from freezing. I replaced the whole tip and the spring when I did mine, it was fast and makes it easy but you do what you want to do.
      If the faucet is split it will be time to replace the whole faucet unfortunately:( Thank you for watching.

      @@thisoldmobilehomeinthewood8434 Hi, I ended up twisting it out of the wall, thank the powers that be it unscrewed. I managed to see pipe tape from inside the house so took the leap. It's split pretty bad, so a new one it is. Your correct about taking off the hose in Winter. I had turned it off inside the house to it but left the hose on, so that's just how it happened. Thanks for the response.

      Sorry to hear that, you might try using a tool mechanics use it has a flexible tube with gripper claws at the tip which you control at your end, Amazon has one of different types, called CRAFTSMAN CMMT14112 Flexclaw Pickup Tool, or you could try turning the water on to that faucet and the pressure should blow the old parts out. Goodluck and thanks for watching.
