I have a Moen kitchen “gooseneck” faucet with pullout hose that was installed in July 2020. I had to replace the 1255 cartridge in 2022 as hard water took its toll on it. No issues until the past few weeks when I have noticed something feeling loose when operating the handle. Tried taking the handle off and retightening several times, wasn’t the issue. Tried 2 new cartridges, still didn’t fix the problem. I did notice the set screws that came with the cartridges are now plastic instead of metal, but I don’t know if that makes a difference. The old metal set screws don’t work with the new cartridges.
The faucet doesn’t leak but the operation is no longer smooth, a drastic change. I thought maybe there is air coming in the line from somewhere but I cannot find anything else that is loose.
Any ideas? Thank you in advance
