lycomingstRecently the toilet has been running and leaking. I have dealt with this before in another house. You need to replace the chain and flapper. Of course, the system was attached differently from the one I'd done before. Instead of just hooking on to another part, this was slipped over an end piece and you had to lift it over. I learned that on Youtube.I didn't have the hand strength to do that so I had to get out TOOLS. A box cutter, pliers, etc and so on. Finally got the old piece off and went to the store to get a new one.
I chose one, I do want to mention that I have to get on my knees to turn the water on and off, just to mention it. So it's installed and the noisy toilet is silent. I still have to shorten the chain to make it perfect, it's sort of jerryrigged now, and that will be fixed in the near future.
