    I know it is an old thread. It is the only thing I could find related to my problem. I'll start a new one next time. Question: how do I remove the old gate and install the new one?

    The spout you have chosen is a spout with a female thread in the nose. You may remove it by unthreading it counter clockwise. Good lick, Tom
