Kitchen faucet "thumps" then loses pressure

Robin
by Robin
My kitchen sink will sometimes "thump" then lose most of the water pressure and flow. I can turn handle down then back up and will regain the pressure. The sprayer doesn't work. I have messed with the sprayer, to no avail. When try to use sprayer, the water will "thump" and lose pressure that way also. I have also "messed" with the center (where single faucet connects to the base of assembly). Not much luck there, either. Could it be the "seats" in each handle? I replaced a seat about 2 years ago, but has gotten progressively worse over time. The faucet did this even prior to replacing the seat on the cold side. Confused.

    This happened in my parent's house when I was younger. It was some kind of plumping problem I remember. I bet @Woodbridge Environmental Tiptophouse.com could give you a good idea on what's happening.

    I do know it is somewhere within the faucet. I didn't see any way to contact them directly? I'm kinda new to this site.

    Thanks for the answer, but I'm still hoping for more ideas.
