The double spout on my 6910 became loose. I tightened it and now it wont return to its original postion. I can turn it to there but it spins past it.
Any ideas? >

Depending n the thread and what loc tight they used to set it in the first place, you could find it goes further than you expect...
If it is just not tightening up as expected, then if it is like mine, you can set it in position by hand (firm) and it is fine.. It is not under pressure etc. You could use thread tape or other sealers etc, but it needs to be OK to clean etc or you will have teh same problem.
If it spins!!! then that suggests the thread is really stuffed, and could be a Sunbeam issue.
Another trick which sometimes works, is if you can grab a couple 9-10mm Neoprene or Viton O-Rings (most bearing service places should be able to supply them, or Repco for example) and slide one on before screwing the Spouts back on. Tighten up the Spouts against the O-Ring until its in the position you want and Bobs your uncle....
