    Kitchen faucet won't turn?
    My faucet is like the one in this question. It won't turn from side to side. I can't get it apart to remove any of it! I have tried soaking it with CLR, and using a knife to try a cut away at the fused part. Nothing.

    There are 2 O-rings inside the faucet column. It appears these O-rings are stiff. You have to replace them. Apply approved lubricant on new O-rings. Back to you. Milo

    Mitch, you must be referring to another faucet in another post but we can not see what you are talking about. Can you post a link?
