bfunke Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 I have Spacrest with Waterway 602-4360 valve to control the neck jets on the recliner. The valve has developed a leak and I've found some black tarry residue in my tub. Basic the valve has a half-round cylinder coated with the tarry stuff and which rotates to control flow. I got a new valve with the same part number but it's a completely different style with a cylindrical screw and a silicone seal on the bottom. I was hoping to just replace the guts but appears I'll have to pull the panels and replace some plumbing. Anyone have any experience with these valves. I tried to post a picture but apparently this forum doesn't support uploading jpegs. Bryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some waterway parts are obsolete which of course would require the replacement scenario. Other options, just clean it up and put new orings in the assy using a silicone lubricant in place of the black tarry stuff. good luck.
