The line from that tube may of got plumbed out of the hot and into the cold. I know when my dad and uncle put a new hot water tank in. they plumbed it backwards. Ever line on the hot got good pressure, but the bathroom sink. Even the tub was good. they never knew why the sink just dribbled. When i put another hot water tank in. i plumbed it the right way, and every line in the house got good pressure from hot. Now who would figure out of three hot lines only one would dribble.
