    Hi Mark

    The only next logical step is to take the faucet supply tube apart from the faucet, direct it into a bucket and see how water flows from the tube (braided hose).

    If water flows well out the supply tube then, by your presentation of known facts, the issue is up in the valve body and you may need to use a coat hanger to clean out the hot water port.

    Let me know what you find.
