        I’ve got a problem with my tub/shower. A small to medium amount of water is comming out of my shower head even when the little thingey is not pulled up on the tub fill. I hope this is an easy fix. How do I do it?

          Sounds like the diverter on the tub spout is not full open when in operation for tub only position. Replacement of tub spout is inexpensive at most.

          If this is a three handle faucet with diverter in the middle, then pull out diverter stem and check the seat washer and seat for defect.

            I checked the pull-up diverter on the tub spout. It seems to be functioning fine. I have realized that when you first trun on the tub things seem to function fine. Its only after you run the shower, then push down (disengage) the diverter that water still comes out of the shower head. None of my other showers do this and they all have the exact same hardware. What the ??????? is going on?
