    I have tried to find a good explanation of repairing a DELTA shower faucet

    Most good hardware stores have repair kits for these faucets

    Believe they give a detailed drawing and tell you how to repair them

    This should help. Biggsie put it up and all I did was expand on it a little. You should be able to shut off the water and using the diagram locate the seats and springs. The part number is 4 and any Delta dealer carries them. While you have the valve open turn the waqter back on for a minute to flush out the supplies and valve bosy. Good luck, Tom
