hello everyone. i am new to the forum so bear with me if i am not correct.
my problem is: i'm replacing a three handled shower. i have replaced the hot and cold with no problems. they work great. my problem is with the diverter. i have replaced it with a brand new stem and i cant get the water to go full force to the shower head. the water does completely turn off at the spout. i have tried replacing the old diverter with new washers, the old stem and still have the same problem. no matter how i put the stem back in i can still only get partial water to the shower head. is there a certain way to align the diverter when putting it in??? there are no markings on the valve to indicate "up" or "down"
any help would be greatly appreciated. i would really like to use my shower again. thanx
