Yes, the Sureflo is the way to go. Go Westy's kit includes a stainless steel plate to cover the larger hole, a one way valve for the city line, and instructions. I got spoiled by this faucet in my EVC-- the dual rotation of the spout and variable flow with both pump and city water are game changers! http://www.gowesty.com/ec_view_details.php?id=23570&category_id=&category_pa rent_id=

Unfortunately they are sold out, but it's worth the wait.

Hi listers,

At the end of a wonderful camping weekend my girlfriend pointed out that the water spout in the sink had developed a leak. There is a plastic washer that marks the spot where the spout swivels as you pick it up and down. When the water is turned on there is now a leak there. When the water is off no leak. It pretty much drains into the sink and is not bad yet.

Does anyone have experience with this? Is this a fix I can do on the spout or is this a indicator that I should order a new spout? A few weeks ago the same spout had a problem making contact when turned and list members here talked me through the repair of the wires. That electrical repair is still working nicely. So is this type of leak the sign of of the end of the spout or can someone suggest a repair ?

Other then Go Westy do other venders also carry a replacement?

Tips and suggestions greatly appreciated.
