my moen kitchen faucet is giving me fits?
my wife tore up the lever. cussed because it was getting hard to operate the moen for life duh huh faucet and I looked on the net and found moens site and it suggested that you use plumbers grade silicone lubricant on the cartridge.so i cut off the water supply to the house,
I took the cover off and removed the screw and I removed the spicket,I removed the nut and I removed the clip but the damn cartridge wont budge. at this point I would normally tear the dayum faucet up and cuss the manufacturer,however, if anybody out there knows a dang trick to remove dat cartridge please be oblidged to tell a pur old man from south alabama that caint afford ta buy anuther dayum kitchen faucet. I took my water pump pliers and held the top of the cartridge and bumped the bottom upwards to try and get the dang cartridge to come out but it wont dangit...what do I do?
Have you purchased a new cartridge yet? The new cartridge comes with a plastic "tool", that is used to slip over the brass shaft of your old cartridge, and turn it 90 degrees. Once this is done, the cartridge will pull right out. It seems that the rubber gaskets, attached to the outside of the cartridge, swell over time, and don't allow the cartridge to pull straight out. You can also pay $20 for an over priced cartridge puller, but if you are like me, every penny counts. Good luck to you! Oh, and by the way, the lubricant is a good idea, when you replace the new cartridge!
