help with suitable tap?

Post by sewhite1982 »

Hi

Thanks to those who helped me recently with some tap advice. Unfortunately the one I bought (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/caravan-MOTOR" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; ... 2ecb34c66d) is too large and so does not fit flush to my sink as the sink is curved. I cant add photos which would show problem as that is beyond my IT skills. The new tap was prob twice the size of the old but similar looking comet tap which I am replacing as it leaks. Can anyone suggest anything else which will def fit. Van is standard 1986 Autosleeper so plenty people out there must have similar sink.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, simon

I have long since abandoned my search for a new tap.
Finding a used one has proved just as fruitless.
You can either move on and fit something that does the job or hang on to the belief that there is a tap out there waiting for you.
Good luck :ok

Can you not dismantle your existing tap and fit new rings? That's what I did with my tap (probably a different tap to yours but the principle should still apply).
