- Difficulty Loosening Valve: If the valve is excessively tight, ensure you are using a breaker bar for increased leverage. Apply steady, increasing pressure rather than sudden force. Ensure the socket is fully engaged to prevent stripping.
- Damaged Splines: If the socket's splines appear worn or damaged, replace the socket to prevent damage to the delivery valve holders.
