Default Stuck Delta Faucet Handle

Thanks for the post! Out set screw was stuck, was about to use a torch but
was not sure if that was going to ruin the handle, was also thinking about
drilling out the screw but then would have to find a compatible handle.

Read this post - then used a dish towel and wrench and easily losened the big
round nut, then the handle and ball came right off! After replacing the
gaskets and springs we tighened the nut down by hand and then used the dish
towel and wrench to tighten it down slowly until it was all the way down
(flush). No more drip drip drip! Thanks!
