Pullout spray head faucet DIY repair?

You can replace the whole thing, head, supply line, everything for less than $10. Why torture yourself?

I think you're talking about the kind that is separately mounted. I've put that kind in before. The one I'm concerned with now pulls out from the faucet itself and has to fit and match. If you or anyone knows where I can get that kind for under $50, I'd be very happy to hear about it ;-)..

The torture is getting up behind the sink to screw in the new hose. I would simply replace the spray head if the hose is OK.

So would I. My point was that *everything* could be replaced cheaply, so there's no point in fretting over it.

YES!!! I have the same model and problem! The hose itself is universal and can be purchased at Home Depot or Lowe's.

Now, does anyone know any tricks to disconect the old hose from the water supply? If I didn't know better, I'd swear the thing is welded on!!
