Answer:

What caliber, faucet is generally small caliber ball valve, can be replaced directly, if it is large, high cost words. Repair may be considered. Generally two problems: 1, stem wear or exercise, can not transfer to the ball core, you need to replace the ball valve; 2, the core of the groove long time work under the edge of wear and tear, slipping, you can replace the ball core;
There is a ball groove, the shaft is connected with a handle is installed in the tank, due to frequent water tap connecting parts have a certain slope groove and the shaft, causing slipping the ball still turn the handle when (the metal ball). Difficult to repair, usually replace the whole ball valve.
