Delta kitchen faucet leaking

[Rick J]

hello,

Delta two handle kitchen faucet is leaking from the main stem. Leak is slow, took apart, tried plumbers tape, o rings look fine, but leak continues. Faucet probably from around 2004.

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks
Rick

Delta has lifetime warranty if you have original receipt.
You can't observe o-ring wear.
O-rings are the only thing replaceable.

Thank you, don’t have receipt as it came with the house, going to try replacing o rings, if that does not work I guess we are buying a new faucet

No receipt? You have a copy of the Deed to the house? Send them that! Owner of the land, buildings and appurtenances, etc.
Or is the Lifetime warranty only valid to original purchaser?
Given you probably only need a couple of O-Rings, not worth the effort of messing around with Delta.
Go to your local plumbing supply house with the part, they'll sell you the right replacement - first time.

Please excuse my ignorance but is that break in that white teflon looking ring suppose to be there?
