Thanks for the great video. Delta folks didn't quite understand my questioning as to what the part was called or even if it was a delta faucet. Pictures were sent and they indicated that it didn't look lke their faucet. After several emails back and forth, they decided to send me a single "O" ring that they hoped would help. They also sent me a link to a you tube video that showed how to replace the O ring but, that was for a different faucet. They were gracious enough to send me the O ring at no cost which was nice of them. As a side note the O ring on their site was listed at .........$ 6.45 + shopping.

Kind of them to send you that O-ring, at $6 they’re pretty proud of that thing lol. I’ve got a kit with tons of them that I bought years ago, and I don’t think it cost much more than that. And I know they’re probably doing the best they can on the phone. Hopefully between them and the video you’ll be able to get it taken care of. 👍🏻

Thanks, Joe! Our Delta faucet manual parts breakout diagram showed two O-rings at the bottom of the spout, but when we took ours off, we only found one in the depression at the bottom and one in a depression up near the top of the neck. We tried it the way the manual showed. The upper O-ring didn't fit very well next to the lower O-ring, and sure enough it tore apart when we tried to put the spout back on. We tried it the way we found it with the second O-ring placed up in the high depression, and that did the trick. We did have to work a bit harder to get the spout off and get then get the spout back down than yours, but that may have been due to the two O-rings. Thanks again!
