HI!
I had a dripping bathroom faucet, so I googled, found some tips, so
here's what I did....
The drip came from the hot side, so I shut off the hot valve underneath
the sink. Then I replaced the stem unit with a new one from Home
Depot. When I turned the valve on, and tried it, it spattered a
little, and then went to a VERY small flow. The cold side now does the
same thing, and I haven't even touched the cold valve! Also, when I
turn the faucet off, it not only leaks, but has the same small flow. I
tried to reverse the stem, thinking I put it in wrong, but that made it
worse. Now I have both valves shut off. Can anyone help please?
Thanks!
Don't you think more people would help if you say what kind of faucet
you're messing with? Unless it's a secret...
A wild guess: wrong stem - Another wild guess: you dropped the old
rubber thingy inside the faucet.
