My Delta Faucet was leaking under the unit on the hot side about a year ago.
so I ordered the new valve and seat and spring. Replaced it and all good.
about 3 months later I noticed a drip. I determined it was hot side so I pulled it apart
and all looked good but there were some "crumbs" in the body so I flushed it out.
put everything back together and it was still leaking. cleaned it out again and put it all
back together still leaking. ordered a new valve, seat and spring put it back together all good
a few days ago I noticed it was dripping again BUT if I use it then turn it off then push the handle
"more" off or hold it off it stops leaking until I use it again. Im a brave amateur but this has me stumped
any insight I just ordered another valve and seat altho this time direct from Delta instead of quick after market
but the whole thing with holding it in off position will stop it from leaking doesnt make sense to me
TIA
