Sink leaks from spout

[Carmin]

Hi: I recently signed onto your site and posted on the toilet forum regarding another issue. I have had a run of thank god minor issues but the toll is getting to be a bit much. My general plumbing question is this. About a month ago I had my boiler purged ( more on that in the boiler forum) to get rid of air in the system. Shortly, after that when ever I turned on my kitchen faucet I would get a rush of air and sputtering of water. I tried to purge the system by turning on all the water values in the house and letting them run for a period of time and then turning them back off. It seems to have made the sputtering air less but it still occurs. My problem is now I noticed a leak under the sink coming from the center spout. It is a four hole configuration with the water sprayer on the far right and then the hot, spout, cold holes on the center plate. The flex tube connects the spout to to sprayer. I checked for tightness and anything obvious but nothing seems out of place. I don't know if this was an issue before but it is now. I have attached a photo. Thanks in advance. Ciao for now

Does the water leak from the sprayer tubing?
Or from the seal for the spout where it meets the body of the faucet. Sometimes there is a rubber O-Ring seal that needs replacing there.

Hi Terry: I would have to say the spout area since it seems the tubing is in decent condition. Where would I find an o ring to fit the spout and interface with the tubing? I have contacted the seller since there is still a warrantee on the product. Any other suggestions? Thanks Ciao

The spout should spin off and you can see the O-Ring when you lift it off.

Hi Terry: Thanks I will try your suggestion to see if the O ring is the villan . Thanks Again will keep you posted. Ciao
