Why does sink spit and gurgle?
maybe you have lyme built up in the faucet, mine was doing that too. fill a bad with vinegar, then tie it to the handle so that the entire head of the faucet is in vinegar and leave it there for a day or two. should take the lyme right out.
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 to repair Faucet aerator?
use a washer.. Two handle, if the handle turns a full circle, it uses a washer. Either flat or beveled. If it is a quarter turn or a single handle, it uses a cup and spring. Either is easy to fix. Turn the water off. Remove the handle. There should be a cap on the top that pops off and a screw underneath. Take the screw out and remove the handle. There is a nut holding the stem down. Take that off and the full turn faucet unscrews out of the hole, the quarter turn pulls straight up. If it unscrews, the washer is on the bottom of the stem, held on with a screw. If it pull out, the cup and spring is in the bottom of the hole. Remove and replace with new. Make sure the cup is in the hole all the way around. Reassemble and the leak should be fixed. With the quarter turn faucets, there are O rings in the handle that should be changed at the same time. There should be a repair kit available for most faucet brands that has all the right pieces. $4-$6

How do you remove the dome from a moen 7560 faucet?
we have had this faucet for a long time and I have done several repairs on it, because it has a lifetime warranty Moen sends us the parts and it is simple to repair. To remove the handle, carefully remove a small plug on the front of the handle, some have the Moen name on them and the one that we currently have is the same color as the faucet. You can remove them easily with a small knife or screwdriver, just make sure not to scratch the finish on the faucet. Under that plug you will find an screw that uses an Allen wrench (3/32), loosen it and the handle will come right off by lifting up on it. To get to the rest of the faucet just lift the dome and the cartridge is ready to remove with a wrench. Don't remove the cartridge without turning off your water source!

You can do this by measuring the diameter and counting the number of threads on the faucet spout.

You may also consider bringing your faucet aerator to a hardware store for assistance in finding the correct adapter.
How do you fix a leaky faucet?
Fixing a leaky faucet is often a simple matter of replacing the rubber seat and the packing. (Note: This does not apply to ball type faucets.) * Turn off water to the faucet at the valve under the sink. * Open the faucet and make sure the water is actually off. * Remove the handle. This varies from faucet to faucet, but most often there is a screw under a cap. * After removing the handle you should see a nut around the shaft of the valve. Remove this nut. * Remove as much of the old packing that was between the shaft and the nut as you can. * Using the handle, unscrew the valve core from the body of the faucet. Turn it in the direction you would to turn the faucet on. * At the bottom of the valve core you removed should be a rubber seat held in by a screw. Remove this. * Take the valve core and rubber seat to the hardware store to get a new rubber piece. Also get new packing. Without packing the faucet will leak under the handle. The old packing cannot be re-used. * Assemble the new rubber seat into the valve core. * Clean any old packing off the valve core and the nut. * Screw the valve core back into the faucet body. * Wrap a few turns of packing onto the valve body. Hand tighen the nut back on. * Do not install the handle yet. * Carefully turn the water back on. You should be able to turn the water fully on and off. If the faucet leaks at the valve stem, tighten the nut until it stops. Do not overtighten the nut as it will make it difficult to remove later and will make the faucet handle stiff. * Re-attach the handle. There are many different kinds of faucets or taps. This might apply to yours. *Turn off the main stopcock so the water won't pour out when you remove the tap/faucet. *Start with the top. Is there a little nut or screw you can remove to separate the handle? If there is you can remove that. You might have to hit the handle upwards or outwards with the handle of a hammer. Try not to damage anything. Even if you can't get the handle off, you might still be able to continue below. *You should then be able to unscrew something. It might just be a cover. You might need a stilson wrench for this. Sometimes the cover is on a spring that you can pull forward to expose the nut behind. *Then there might be a nut to unscrew which will remove the whole front of the faucet or tap. You WILL need a wrench or shifting spanner for this. *Pull out the valve with your fingers. If it is worn and leaking, you should replace it. A worn valve is the most common problem with leaking taps. *Then put everything back. Unless you are throwing away the old faucet/tap and replacing it with a new one. *Make sure you can turn the front handle before you tighten up the back nut. *Turn on the main stopcock. *Clean up all the dirt and muddy water from the floor. *Take a shower to test it before you tell everyone else of your magnificent achievement. turn off the water..
