So.... I bought an Aquarium plants regulator about 6 months ago and recently bought a 3 way manifold . When trying to install the manifold the fitting was the wrong size, but only because an adapter was pvc glued tightly in the solenoid valve's outflow. I put the needle valve that was previously in that fitting and cranked it in there (like a crazed idiot) thinking i could make it so tight that when I loosened it would just slide right out . I tightened it so much that i stripped out the needle valve and can't remove it. I could hacksaw the screw and use a hex wrench to unscrew it but that wouldn't really fix the problem. How could I free the adapter from its loctite or pvc putty? All I need to do is get the adapter out from the solenoid valve and the problem's pretty much solved. Sorry to be so wordy.
thanks,
