We have a Delta three-handled faucet in our bathtub. The hot water handle was leaking, so I went to Lowe's and got a 7S-4D diverter stem extension, a diverter stem, and some seats and springs, all Danco brand. I tried putting the seats and springs in in all the combinations--seat first, then spring, spring and seat, small end of spring in seat--but no matter how I turn the handles, water still gushes out of the spout! What am I doing wrong?
How should I put the seat and spring together?
Is there something in the metal pipes the handles go in that I should remove with a socket wrench? In the hot water pipe, it feels like there are two holes for the spring, and the hole in the cold pipe feels like it's off center!
