My daughter's classmate knocked the bottle over and it started leaking. I went and bought one at Target on Saturday and the same boy knocked it over again and it leaked again. Thank goodness I found your video and now both bottles are fixed and I am very happy! Thank you!
Wow! I’m trying this today. I just found my Nephew’s Gatorade bottle in the recycling bin this morning. He said it was leaking… I’m glad I logged on to RU-vid and found this fix. Fingers crossed. 😆 Thank you! 👀🫡💯🔥
@@chrishad95 UPDATE: I went to try it…and guess what? Those two very small plastic pieces you removed and readjusted aren’t even there…. They’re MISSING! 😳😱😭 lol
Thank you so much dude I have basketball practice tomorrow morning and was panicking because I thought I would have to go without a working water bottle and then found this
Tysm i dont live in america or any country that sells gatorare bottles i only got onr thanks to visting sesttle for a week and broke it i can now use jt again
Glad it helped. Just days ago my daughter asked me to fix it again. When I removed the little pieces. I saw that it needed a good cleaning anyway. Just fyi...
Thanks made had the bottle in my daughter's basketball bag and water leaked all over her sneaker. She had to play a game with 1 wet sneaker. Will try this. Thanks
Hi!! I just now discovered I have a similiar issue. How do you buy that replacement valve in the center??? I have two sons with autism and they are still on bottles and bought these for them and it has been a god send, saving our carpets and beds from leaking but I’ve taken them out to really deep clean them and they get gunk build up REALLY bad! I NEED these bottles in my life still and I need to know how to replace both those tiny parts!!! Help me!!!! ❤
Does yours have an o-ring between the lid and the bottle? We just bought one and the seal in the flip up part of the lid is fine, but when my son squeezes it, water comes out below the lid. He found out with grape Gatorade on a white away jersey! I took off the lid and there's no sort of gasket or o-ring there, which doesn't seem like a great design at all.
@@chrishad95 Thank you, we have the o ring between the two halves, and it's doing its job. It's leaking between the bottle and the lid, and I wasn't sure if we didn't get a gasket we were supposed to get, or if my son just needs to stop hulking out on it!
That might be something up with the gasket that seals the top when you close it. The orange top that opens up like a clam shell has a black gasket to seal it
