Toilet Spray Nozzle Leak

Hi,

I have a small leak in the spray nozzle which is coming from the coupling and runs down the hose. I think it needs a washer or something like that but don't know where to get one. The spray handle can swivel around easily even after tighting the plastic threaded retainer...and I also tried tread tape on the retainier threads but realized that this wasn't the pressure seal.

Until I fix it I have to hold the nozzle over the bowl so it drips in there whenever I want to fill or flush.

It's a 92 Airstream Land Yacht MH 30'.

Thanks.
Dave

8 bucks at home depot/lowes. Look for a replacement sprayer in the plumbing department. They are universial. You can get just the washer, but my experience is that the messing with the sprayer to replace the washer tends to make the trigger valve leak.

Toilet spray nozzle inop

Hate to highjack this thread, but have tried to find info/post a question but cannot figure out how to do so.
Anyway, my toilet spray nozzle does not spray.
I have replaced it to no avail.
I completely took it off and tried flushing the toilet - no water flow at all.
Am I correct in thinking that the toilet flush valve on the back controls the flow to the nozzle?
If so, any ideas on how to repair/ replace it?
Thanks

You are correct, the toilet must be flushing and flowing water to work. Hold down the pedal and squeeze the spray nozzle. If it does not work, the problem is in the valve in the back of the toilet.
