Toilets, Sinks, Showers, Tubs and Disposals - bathtub faucet...drip...drip...drip

The faucet is dripping (just enough to be annoying!)...

Its a cartridge faucet, so I shut off the water, removed the cap, the screw, the handle, & the clip...Only problem is I can't get the cartridge out! I'm pulling on this thing (and probably destroying it in the process), but once it gets to the full 'on' position, no more! I've tried WD-40 & 'Liquid Wrench' to try to loosen, but neither works. I'm looking for something else that may be keeping this on - another clip? a screw somewhere? but haven't found anything...

Any ideas?

Thanks!

You didn't say what Brand it is so I included links and phone numbers for the major manufacturers. Hope you can solve your problem with them. Good luck on your project.

From your discription it sounds like a regular Moen cartridge. When you buy a new cartridge it comes with a small plastic cap. Usually white with a square on one end. This is to help remove the old cartridge. with the clip out put the cap over the old cartridge and push and carefully use it to turn the cartridge back and forth. If it will turn it will usually pull right out. If you can't turn it with that then you can buy a Moen cartridge remover tool at HD. If that doesn't work and sometimes it won't with old brass cartridges that are REALLY stuck, e-mail me and I'll tell you how to remove it and save the faucet.
