Dripping Pressure Relief Valve
I have a 2005 TK3 that has not had many issues but I have one now. I have never had a dripping pressure relief valve, but one has recently developed.
I have tried all recommended remedial steps but nothing has helped. The drip is not continuous but not minimal either.
I am beginning to think that the valve will not hold its design pressure and needs to be changed. However, I am hesitant to do this since the valve is so corroded. Perhaps WD40 will free is up but it looks like I will need to turn the wrench very strongly. I am worried that I will strip threads or damage the water heater.
Any advice or suggestions?
