OK, so let's unclog your kitchen fixture. Shut off both angle or striaght stops. Those are the valves under your sink. Loosen and remove the sink tailpieces. (3/8" chromed tubes) rod it out with a small coathanger wire. Next take apart your sink fixture. A delta faucet requires a 1/8" allen wrench to remove the handle. Use a channel lock plier with some tape over the jaws and unsrew the bonnet cap. be careful of the "O" rings and remove the ball. Look inside and remove the rubber seats and springs. Now blow some air through the faucet to blow out anything inside the ball seat. use the coat hanger wire and see if anything comes out of the ball seat area. try it on the ball itself. now reverse assemble it and try it with water pressure.
