In theory it should be a simple installation. Turn the water off, remove a handle and faceplate, unscrew the valve and replace. Except in our lovely house where if there is a water shutoff, it's location may never be found. So after turning on every water valve in the house, locking the toilets to run, all outside hoses on full, I tried to take this on.
With water still spraying out the valve housing I could press the new valve in but the o-rings kept unseating every time. After a few attempts I got the idea to take some teflon tape and wrap the two o-rings onto the valve to keep them in place while pushing the new valve in. This worked perfectly, I was able to tighten it up, and no more leaks.
