    How do you know if the stop is open or shut? Vertical or horizontal?

    There are a great many valves, any of these look like yours? Stop Valves by Kohler and Elements of Design at PlumberSurplus.com Does it have a knob or just a blade type handle? Quarter trun or multiple turns?

    Are we talking angle stop here? (see image)?

    Hey John,
    Why did you put up a washer box when we're talking dishwashers? Inquiring minds want to know! Cheers, Tom
