Finding And Fixing A Water Leak In The Main Water Line In The Yard

I found a water puddle in my front yard. It had not rained in about two weeks so I knew I had a water leak. I had called a plumber, he said he would dig it up and fix it for $300 dollars. The only problem was, his knee was hurt, so he could not dig it up. He said If I dig it up, he would fix it for $150 dollars. I dug up the pipe, but when I called the plumber, he did not answer.

    At 26:36, you have the threaded pin backwards. The cut slots go outward to allow a screwdriver to hold it while tightening the sideplate screw. You were lucky on that valve, I've tried tape, rubber, nothing will hold mine tight enough to allow me to get it to come apart. The plier jaws did a pretty good job strafing the checkvalve surface though... I may try it again with leather, perhaps an old belt. The screw was also cross-threaded into it, but a tap salvaged it enough to where the screw will hold.

Reassembling at around 21:49 you can see me fumbling with it and it seamed like it would only go in the way I put it in, but I was able to put it in backwards somehow. If one of the screws got stuck in there, it would be hard to get it out without access to the slotted part of the pin. I am surprised the pin isn't slotted on both ends. But, when I was disassembling, that part, I didn't need to hold the pin to be able to take the screw out, I got lucky. I was mainly taking video of taking this apart for my own use in case I couldn't remember how something went together. Thank you for pointing this out.

Unfortunately my lights have about a 3mm passing between the backing and the actual inside of the lens itself but I’ll do what one comment said and just sew the magnet into a microfiber cloth. Pray for me lol about to go to the hardware store for the stuff.

      @@dirt_diver I am just curious. Like I said before, I have heard that one pump theoretically puts a little bit of pressure on the seals that helps them keep their shape and therefore not leak. If you search the topic, you will find all kinds of reasons to store them with one pump and lots of reasons to not store them with one pump. I guess it just comes down to personal preference.

    Did you get mud in lines from the leak also?

      I tried my best not to but I believe i did. If you watch my video of rebuilding the pressure regulator, it was dirty and rusty. I think the demise of my pressure regulator may have been a combination of time and mud. Thank you for your question.

    Ended up being able to throw a pipe repair clamp on it (with a little Alien Shield tape stuck between the rubber and the pipe) to get it done. The confidence to get in there in the first place came from your video. Thank you!!

      Thank you for the thanks. I think the hardest part, for me, was digging to the pipe. How long did you have to dig?

      You realize that's a band aid and the weakest link in your chain now, you'll really realize it next time you're digging the same hole 😉

      @@Bear2U I have read both sides of the argument for using or not using shark bite connectors. I guess, if they ever fail, I will find out.

    I like your "general rule of thumb". That expression could be horribly ironic if you don't stick to the rule (it would become a "rule of no thumb")

      Most of us have eight fingers and two thumbs, that's why we have to be careful with our thumbs, we don't have many extras.

    Hello. I live in an old house. I am getting stinky smells in the living room and near the attic access. The living room is over the access to the crawl space. The fire department read hydrogen sulfide. Sometimes the toilet gets stopped, mainly in the mornings. Do you know what my problem could be?

      You might need a plumber. At least you don't have bald faced hornets.
