When installing plumbing fixtures, you should always use either plumbers putty or Teflon tape around the threads where the two pieces come together. Without it, leaks are very possible. More often than not, you get leaks.

sounds like you need to replace the "seat" this is the part that the seal ring pushes against to make the seal ...ask for the complete kit at your plumbing supply store this should include everything you need

http://www.plumbingspecialties.com/downloads/PPfistertoSpeak.pdf......this website offers several blow up diagrams of the mixometer. More than likely it is the packing and all you have to do is tighten the packing nut. You can do this by removing the handle and tightening the nut below it. You may have to remove the escuteon to gain access but the blow up should help you. If you have any questions just ask.

Remove handle. Next take channel locks and unscrew counter clockwise the ring. Next look for plastic location tab at 3 or 9 o clock. Remember location. Next pull out rest of parts including ball. I would recomend replacement of ball with new seats and springs. Delta makes a kit with all the parts that you need. Hope this helps.
