    I must assume this is an ordinary washer type faucet so tell me if it isn't. Remove the handle, screw frequently hidden under a emblem or logo plate, lossen the packing nut below the handle and lift off. Slip the handle back on temporarily and back the stem out counterclockwise. Why do you ask?
