Brian, for your viewers, when using teflon tape, it's important not to put on too much as this can squeeze outward the plastic mating surface, potentially cracking it and causing more leaks. Usually 2 or 3 wraps should be adequate.

@ThatFixItGuy 2 года назад

I totally mentioned that and ended up editing it out because it was too long. Great minds think alike. I will pin this!

@Vincerama 3 месяца назад

Use pipe dope instead. It squishes into spaces you need it to and won't crack anything.

@jacobsilvens8153 2 года назад

Hope all is well after your procedure. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

@ThatFixItGuy 2 года назад

Thank you. All is well so far. On the mend for sure.

I had exactly this situation. O ring dropped down. Took it apart and put it back together. Amazing.

@kentforman8836 2 года назад

Nice job on finding the missing piece. Nice Bob Ross impersonation cleaning the caulk.

@ThatFixItGuy 2 года назад

Lol!

@joshcooper130 2 года назад

The round tip of the pull tab comes off. If you hold the shaft the tab is connected to with needle nose or small pliers to keep it from rotating, and rotate the tip, it should come right off. Then just remove the gray cap and o-ring and the entire assembly slides right out. Much faster and no risk of damaging the plastic internals. Excellent job and excellent video! 👌

@ThatFixItGuy 2 года назад

Thank you for that insight. I really appreciate it.

Thanx! You saved me $50+ of replacement! I had exactly the same issue!

An amazing video! The Delta spouts can be very difficult to understand, let alone repair. Exact replacement spout alone can be near $100! This is the first video that I’ve seen that gets inside the works. You do great communication!

@pingliu2147 2 года назад

There is a small hole underneath of the base of this spout. You seemed not use silicon to seal it. You just applied both sides underneath the spout. I followed your video. Very helpful. I called Delta, they said it is up to me to seal it or not. Seem not a big deal. Do I need to seal that hole or leave it open? Thank you for your answer.

@ThatFixItGuy 2 года назад

I always leave that hole open. It is a good way to pop the plate up after caulked in place if you ever have to work on something.

@stevesproul3744 2 года назад

Great video brother. Another thing everyone should know how to fix. I hope you’re feeling better and healing fast buddy.

@ThatFixItGuy 2 года назад

Thank you Steve. This worked out better than I could have thought. I’m feeling better every day. Thanks for the thoughts and prayers.

Your welcome. So glad you are enjoying the content. Thank you for watching. I really enjoying the learning as well.

@clovisgauthier3602 Год назад

Great job. Kohler says their spouts don't have serviceable parts so I bought a new one on eBay because my spout was discontinued.

Nice find in the drain!

@deannacalef3513 2 года назад

Wow! How fortunate for you that gizmo dropped where you could find it. Nice content for sure.

@ThatFixItGuy 2 года назад

Totally agree. When I found that it was like striking gold. Thank you for checking it out

@luciw9928 Год назад

Thank you very much for this video!! The same thing happened with my son’s spout!! 🥰❤️

@Spigola1-351 Год назад

How do you remove that copper fitting. I was trying to replace the diverter spout but can't remove it.

@Evangelistaadventures Год назад

Great video bud!! Great problem solving!!

@geraldalfano5581 2 года назад

I always seal around the copper tube coming through the tile with plumbers' putty to prevent water from getting behind the wall.

@ThatFixItGuy 2 года назад

That is a great call. Thanks for sharing that tip.

@brittblanton8342 2 года назад

Great video Brian, any idea what cut the grooves in the tub by the drain? I hope you are feeling better and have a speedy recovery 👍🇺🇸

@ThatFixItGuy 2 года назад

Thank you Britt. I don’t know what caused that in the tub. It seems weird that I would come that way and they would be ok with it.

@TheCodesterr Год назад

Man this was entertaining. I’ve been trying to find a matte black tub spout that will fit the delta adapter like this, and this is the only one. The reviews online are kinda bad, do you think the water flow is okay? Any drips from the spout when the diverted is up?

@theMekanik 2 года назад

They need to build a house where all the plumbing & wiring is ran on the outside of the walls. Make it happen & make the power DC. 😎

@ThatFixItGuy 2 года назад

I have plumbed a couple buildings like that in the desert.

@shmootube5000 Год назад

i have a similar spout except round with that stupid extra plastic piece inside, except that extra piece snapped. ive found no replacements for it anywhere, i hate that they’re made with this extra nonsense that only complicates things.

@threatmurda508 Год назад

Better luck then me, my crappy discontinued delta spout that's similar to this has 0 lee way to put the lil plastic gate to hook up t the pin 🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️ previous homeowners did a hack job to on top of it with a crappy Delta valve

@mythbuster7631 11 месяцев назад

no offense but you making it more difficult that it needs to be. The trick is that the shaft can be separated from the head, it's just screwed on. Hold the shaft with the pliers, unscrew the head and it all becomes easy
