Leak at kitchen faucet

[Amill110]

My kitchen faucet has leaked for a while now. It didn't start until I replaced the diverter. Thr attached picture is also something that came out in that process and I believe it may be what is causing my issue? The sink drips about 7 or 8 seconds after I turn the faucet off and then it is fine until it is turned off again.

Seven or eight seconds of dripping sounds like a forget about it issue.

Replace the washer internally on the faucet. The black washer in your hand looks like it could be one off the washers.

Where exactly does this washer go? And what about the pin? Anyone else?

It's part of the diverter, look behind the spout when removed

It didn't come with the diverter, though. It was already with the faucet. Can anyone givee a visual representation please? Thanks in advance.

Do you have a spray hose with the faucet

 

[Amill110]

Yes that's why I had to replace the diverter.

 

[TomFOhio]

Did you put new diverter parts in since that looks like the parts in your hand?

 

[Amill110]

Yes the need diverter is installed and functional

What brand of faucet do you have and is it a 2 handle or single handle. A picture usually helps if you can.

 

[Amill110]

It's a delta 2 handle faucet. I'll get the picture on here in the morning.

Did you change the rubber seats & springs. Try that and you should be good on the dripping. Plenty of you tube
videos on this if you haven't done it before.
