Hi, I have a tub/shower with hot/cold valve with tub spout diverter. When turn on water and diverter not engaged...water coming from spout...a great deal of water flows behind wall from spout area. Plumber said was diverter issue. He replaced slip on diverter and made it into a screw on diverter. The leak behind the wall from spout area stoped. However when diverter not engaged, water not only comes from spout, but some drips/flows from shower head. No solution. Why replacing diverter stopped water flowing, like Niagara Falls, from spout area behind wall, why replacing diverter stopped leak, but now allows water to come from shower head when water not diverted. Thanks for the helpful explanations to questions and possible solutions. dan
