I have the above valve in my system. It is leaking around the gasket between the top and bottom halves of the valve, and it is difficult to turn the handle (I do push the handle all the way down before turning it). I've seen a part "key, cover and handle assembly", part number SPX740BA on a number of web-sites, and it has been suggested that I install this part.
Is it as easy as removing the cover screws, dropping in the part, and re-installing the screws ? Do I need any kind of sealant for the gasket ? Thanks in advance for any help.
