Just change it. There are still hot and cold connections underneath and all kitchen faucets fit the same holes in the sink.

ANS 2 - Very easy to fit another faucet, all you need is basic handyman skills, a plumbers faucet wrench (sometimes) a medium crescent wench and a 9/16 flat wrench. Takes about 30 minutes.

You just have to move the pipes. The spacing on two handle is going to be wider than a single handle. How you do that depend on what type of pipe you have. They make a trim plate that will cover the old holes and give you a spot for the single handle.

That is for a shower only. Sink faucets, either kitchen or bath use the same holes in the top and most faucets will cover all the holes. The ones that only use two holes for the faucet usually have a soap dispenser for the third hole. The vast majority of faucets will have a flexible supply line between the house Plumbing and the faucet. These may need to be lengthened depending on the faucet and the placement of the supply lines in the house.

Why does only hot water come out of the bath shower with the cold turned on?

First make sure that the hot and cold supply lines (the plumbing) aren't backwards (hot should be on the left as you are facing the faucet) or that someone accidentally ran two hot lines. For the problem to be in the faucet itself you would have to have a single handle faucet. If this is the case the control valve is broken and should be replaced. Three handle Left= Hot Water Flow. Right= Cold Water Flow Center= Controls whether the water comes out the shower head or tub faucet. Two handle Left= Hot Water Flow Right= Cold Water Flow (Diverter Valve is elsewhere if it's a tub/shower) Single handle One handle controls both water pressure and temperature

How do you change the washer on a very old tub faucet that leaks and do you unscrew the little nut on the handle to do it?

A "very old tub faucet" probably has a washer AND packing around the stem. Back off (open a little) the handle, remove the cap nut (the one the stem goes through that threads onto the faucet), this should do it. Replace the washer, wrap pipe thread around the stem (probably a good idea to touch up the seat while you're there) and reinstall.
