It's a single-handled faucet with the built-in sprayer. The issue I'm having is with the water flow. It seems to be very choppy, with a loud banging noise whenever I turn it on. The problem seems to be with the hoses underneath, but I have no idea how to fix them, or whether I need to do something with them to make it stop. Obviously, I'm not that experienced with this kind of stuff, but I take direction well! So if you have any clue what I'm talking about, and whether I can fix it or not myself, please let me know. It was a bit twisted I guess from use, so I untwisted it, and it seems like the hose (it's metal braided, for what it's worth), is squeezed together in some areas. Any tips will be most useful right now.

Thanks in advance!!

Obviously if the hoses are kinked it may not flow well, twisting the hoses sometimes works, sometimes causes a leak, but you got to try.

Is it worse with hot or cold? Or doesn't it make any difference? This "choppy", do you mean there's air in the line or just a banging sound when you turn it on? Does it spit at you? Please describe what's happening in more detail. Thanks, Tom

Sorry, I should have posted follow-up information on this. I disconnected the faucet to see where exactly the problem was. I took apart the water supply from the hose that connects to the sprayer itself, and that water flow was fine. So it has something to do with the hose that goes through the faucet itself. The water flow is low, and if I raise it to the maximum level, it bangs like a hammer and then stops flowing. So right now, I'm just using the main water supply hose disconnected from the faucet itself as my water supply. Just to make sure, I disconnected the hose from the faucet head itself, and it still did the same thing. Hope that's enough information!

Sounds like a diverter problem. What brand?

It's an "off" brand. Resembles a Delta, I would believe, but the faucet is stamped "Kospak" on the back.

Maybe a delta diverter will work, I doubt it. The diverter is under the spout

If it helps at all, this is the faucet: http://www.mayfair-hardware.com/putt-out-spout-kitchen-faucet/039.htm

And what would I be looking for if it is, in fact, the diverter? Should there be wear on it? Or will it be clogged? Just give me something I can go on here.. . I'm not a whiz with this kind of stuff, but like I said before, I take direction very well!

I don't know if bumping is allowed here, but I'm still having the issue. Anyone have any other suggestions?

The faucet sounds like an offbrand. If you can not disassemble it then I advise you to replace it.
