Rubber band or similar strong elastic material enough to hold (retain)the valve liver up (horizontal).
Weight system can also be used.You may need a pulley wheel.
Get tiny pulley from curtain supplies for changing the direction of force !!!.

At this stage your Tap is in closed position
If you try to open it will go back to closed position !!!.
Now you want a string to tie on the cock liver to pull down and open the valve.
Buy angling nylon string or use what similar item available at home.
