To tighten a Moen faucet, first, turn off the water supply and open the faucet to relieve any pressure. Use an adjustable wrench or a basin wrench to tighten the mounting nut underneath the sink, which secures the faucet to the countertop. Check for any loose screws on the handle and tighten them as needed. Finally, turn the water supply back on and test the faucet for leaks to ensure it is securely tightened.

Why is cold water being siphoned into hot water lines?
It may be caused by your faucets needing replacement cartridges, if your faucets are single valve type. Note: I learned of this several years ago working with the Moen technicians (they willingly helped diagnose the problem.) This may seem counter-intuitive but when a house is built the installers will choose one manufacturer for faucets, although many different styles, within the house. If they install a single handle type the seals on the faucet cartridges start to deteriorate and begin to "bleed" the hot water into the cold water lines and visa-versa. If you replace only one of the cartridges the problem will migrate to another faucet, within a short time. So I would suggest replacing all the cartridges at one time. Since I was in the trade buss. Moen actually paid for the replacement cartridges if I agreed to send all the old ones for study. (I doubt that Moen will do it for you.)
How do you repair a faucet stem leak?
With the faucet shut off, take the handle off and under it is a nut around the stem. There is either an O ring under the nut, a fiber washer or stem packing depending on what type of faucet it is. Replace which ever it has and that should fix it. If your faucet is a screw type, the handle turns several time when opening it, you can probably take the nut off, wrap two or three wraps of stem packing around the stem, clockwise looking down on it and replace the nut and tighten. This will compress the packing around the stem without replacing the cone washer in the nut or all of the old packing.
