Hey guys, if the valve is way too tight and I cannot unscrew it and there is no space for spanner, what do I do?
My toilet was like this one but worse. I was doing this to install a bidet.

I am talking about the valve under the toilet. I had a really hard time taking it off today. I was wondering what is a way to take it off. Because traditional power tools dont work.

Talking about this thing.
Impossible to twist off. Power tools wont work. No space for leverage.
Now what.
My toilet is worse than this.

You could try a basin wrench. But I'm not sure what they are all call that faggot kingdom you're in.

It has those wide wings on it, you can just jam a screwdriver in there and pry it. You can grab it with a wrench from below. If it is on so tight, use a longer wrench. However that piece was put on by hand by some mexican dude who is several inches shorter than you and apparently several times as strong.
OP is from >>>/biz/60792615 where he was being retarded for a dozen posts before coming here to embarrass himself further.

those valves are shit, if you don't turn them at least once a year then they seize up and will break.

Call your husband to use his man strength since you're too onions-laden to do it.

The /biz/ thread shows comic levels of samefagging, I don't know if the guy understands how IDs, or maybe how anything works.

>traditional power tools
a traditional tool would be a hand tool, not a power tool
in the current case you are the biggest tool here

Let a drop of oil soften it overnight. A lot of people would default to wd40. I personally like sewing machine oil.

Take tank off. Plenty of room for tools when it's upside down on the floor.

There is a high chance you'll break the hose fitting at least. So be prepared to go to a hardware store for a replacement hose and plastic attachment bit. Also, if you break the porcelain piece the hose attaches to on the actual toilet (I have no idea what that would be called) you'll need a new toilet. So don't get too mad at that stuck fitting. I'd follow the other anon's suggestion and empty the water out of the entire thing and take it apart (take the tank off) and then the toilet from the wax seal on the ground and flip it over and deal with it then. It's a good time to clean your toilet top to bottom in the shower and use any hard water cleaners like rust off or similar. You're going to go through this experience once so better make sure it's clean for your new bidet.
Someone suggested WD40, before that I'd spray on a limescale remover like VIM Bathroom or something stronger. Try and loosen the limescale bond in that fitting.

OP trying to install a bidet in his trap house to flip it... lmfao
Bidets are for the elite and travelers. Smelly scum walks around like a poojeet. Call a real plumber or handy-man because your t-levels need to be checked.
