I have an older shower. I have removed the Shower diverter and replaced it. I have the type that has a spring on it and you pull it out to make water go to the shower and then push in (or turn water off ) to make it go to the tub. This diverter is on the wall eg its NOT the type that is built into the the tub water outlet.
The problem is that after I have replaced the part it now leaks even worse from the diverter, particularly when the tub is being filled.
As I asess the problem I think that my problem is that the rubber O ring that goes on the outside of the plastic sleeve is falling off and not sealing when i insert it into the diverter hole that is very tight. Here is a picture of my part. (click on the picture its self for a bigger view)
Im apealing to those of you who may have done this before and has some experience with this problem. I have tried putting vaciline on it to make it more slippering but that has nto worked.
Thanks Unwashed famly.
