I'm replacing the faucet and pop-up in my bathroom sink. Doing well so far, but I have a question I hope you can help me with.
The pop-up assembly is plastic, and the trap is metal (galvanized steel?). How should I connect them? The instructions show a plastic nut and sleeve that don't seem to be included in the package. I still have the metal nut and o-ring from removing the old metal pop-up. I tried using that, but it doesn't fit snugly on the plastic pipe. Do I need to get a new fitting to connect the plastic tube to the metal trap?
To be more specific, I have the metal trap, and then a straight, vertical piece of metal pipe a few inches long, and then the plastic pop-up tube. so the pop-up is connecting to that vertical piece, not directly to the trap piece.
Thanks.
