What happens here

First, engage the pop-up stopper in the sink basin. Locate the retaining nut for the pop-up stopper operating rod under the sink and unscrew it. While holding the pop-up stopper from the top, carefully pull the operating rod out from under the sink. Once the rod is free, remove the pop-up stopper from the sink basin. Observe the severe corrosion and buildup on the removed parts, noting the extent of the damage and clogs.

Goal: Remove the old, corroded pop-up stopper and its operating rod by unscrewing the retaining nut and pulling the components out. Inspect the removed parts for wear and buildup.
