I tried to adjust my mixing valve since i couldnt turn the water heater water any higher and I managed to snap off most of the stem.before :http://ift.tt/2luK4oe : http://ift.tt/2lfkk44 looks like it was installed poorly and could not be adjusted or just 10 years took its toll.Should I bother asking a friend to wield something to the leftover stem and use the valve or go and replace the valve outright?looks like rust or thread was already stuck from way before : (whitish stuff on the left)bonus pic : http://ift.tt/2luG0nU of the valve in question http://ift.tt/2lWgSde via /r/DIY http://ift.tt/2mNH9bn
