If i turn it back off (kind of crank it off) and then back on, hot water will begin to flow. Do I have some sort of air leak that is effecting the pressure? Any help would be awsome. Thanks

You will need to turn off the water supply and take the handle apart to examine the washer. Not a hard job. __________________ If you have never made a mistake, you haven't done much.
