Review on 🔧 Fix Your Delta Single Handle Faucet with the Danco 86970 Cartridge Repair Kit - Durable Brass Construction by Adam Hutchinson

This set will not fit my Delta faucet. I am not sure which faucet model we have as we inherited it with our new house. I had constant dripping from the faucet (not the handle) and assumed the seats and springs needed replacing (two small round pieces of black rubber sitting on top of two small springs). I figured I could replace the ball and cam assembly while I was there so I ordered this complete set. The seats and springs fit well, but I can't get the ball and cam together properly, resulting in a new grip leak that I didn't have before. Yes I inserted a metal pin into the slot in the ball and yes I matched the plastic pin on the cam to the appropriate notch. Still doesn't fit. The camera that came with this kit is different in style than the one in my faucet. Mine is 1 piece (grey) with a small metal snap ring on the bottom that runs through a rubber channel. There are 2 pieces in this set. White piece with black padding underneath. As you can see in my photo, the small spring on the bottom of my original gray camera (which is pointed at with my finger) is partially out of its rubber channel. The rubber is a bit lazy and I can't get it to sit properly so I needed a replacement. I put my old ball and camera back in and gave it a try. By just replacing the seats and springs, my initial leak has improved, but there is still a small drip from the faucet. This kit didn't work for me.
