I once (when I was around 18-19) heated a tap body with a blowlamp as I had reached the point where it was a replacement basin or live with a drip as I could not get the head off, not undo the backnut to replace the tap, I called my dad (a farmer) wich told me , "give it some heat" haha it worked and I just stuck a new body in it!! what a cowboy thinking back!!!!!!!
 
Just about to order one and they're offering tap re seating tools as an add on. One for imperial and one for metric. So how do you know which one to use, imperial or metric?
 
I've got one. Haven't used it in ages, normally use grips and a backnut box spanner
