I have a Price Pfister 3 handle tub faucet which is leaking. I replaced the washers and seats which I have done successfully before elsewhere on the same model faucet. Very surprised to see that the leak was not stopped. Any suggestions on what else to try? Many thanks.

Issue solved. I have read here that seats don't require thread sealants, but in this case it made all the difference.

I had used teflon tape but the threads on the seats were about half the width of the tape and I don't think it adhered well. I'm glad this forum is here, great info source!
