Hi, We have an Eljer Single Handle Tub Faucet in our hall bath. We just purchased the home and it was installed around 1999. We were trying to adjust the temperature stop (without turning off the water) and the cartridge blew out of the pipe that housed it a bit (the valve?). We turned the water off and put everything back together and now we have a leak. A pretty steady drip out of the faucet. We ordered an entire replacement package of the cartridge etc and installed it and we still have a steady flow of water coming out of the faucet. We scrubbed the inside to remove particles and build up, replaced everything and continue to have a drip. We are at a loss. Are we missing something? Thanks.
