It been a while since I had a 2 handle Delta. If my memory serves me right.
Turn off the water to the faucet. Remove the screw that holds the handle.
Remove the handle. There should be a retaining nut under the handle. Remove it.
You might need to pry up on the stem to get it out of the casing. I use to
replace the handle back on the stem, put the screw back on and tap gently to
get the stem loose, if I had to.

I am preparing for surgery on a older model two handle delta fauct.
the cold water side leaks from undr the handle and it really pours
out if you turn on that handle. so the screw is out of the top. How
does one lift up the handle . does it need some type of puller ? can it
be pried off with two screwdrivers ? we now have a new Lowes and if
need be there is a different hardware store some 12 miles North of here.
worst case senerio we will install a new one. thanks Lee
