Subject:oem faucet hard to turn on/off

I replaced the original faucet on my 85 westy a few years back with a Bus
Depot oem replacement. It was stiff to turn on & off from the beginning and
I thought it would loosen up with use. That hasn't happened and a good grip
is required to turn it and with wet hand it's almost impossible. Before I
start messing around with it does anyone have some info on this to pass
along. Also is anyone using the Euro only westy faucet?. I don't want to
install a Surflo- unless I have to. Thanks all.
