able to remove, I saw that the set screw just pressed against the faucet
cartridge stem (not going into any notable indentation. I was able to
pull the
chrome cover straight up by wiggling it back and forth, and wedging q-tip
stems under it as space was created. So now it is off, although the set
screw
still has the TORX tip jammed inside. I wish I had thought to force it up
before jamming up the set screw; with the handle off (the cartridge stem no
longer in the way), I could have just screwed the set screw in until it
went
all the way through..



Easy to fix. Do you want to have these problems in the future? No.
Go to the plumbing supply, buy a nice Kohler faucet and replace the crap
in there. Once and done.
