I'll bring my O-rings to Branson and repair leaking faucets for folks if there are any that want me to. You remove, I'll replace the Orings, and You install. Free. If you want me to walk out to your coach and do the R&R I'll probably have a donation bucket or something. It's one slotted screw to remove the diverter.

If you're going to want me to work on yours, please PM or email me so I will be sure to have enough O-rings.

I'm supposed to have a faucet so I can set up a display but it hasn't arrived after a couple months. If anyone has a faucet for sale, please get with me.

Kerry, after the screw is removed do you have to drive the diverter valve out? Mine will not pull out using the knob. Is it a press fit? Nevermind, just found your pictures on the rebuild. One picture is worth a thousand words.. Thanks

I should pull out. You may have to try harder!

It should pull straight out unless an O-ring is wadded up or there is calcium buildup or similar. You might have to twist, wiggle, and pull all at the same time.

I think Howard said his was a bit difficult to remove.
