around toilet area)

At this point I am not sure what could be causing it to leak? should I
try another flapper...

If I read your post correctly, you put one of the new flush controllers
and a new flapper in your old toilet. *I'm guessing the problem is with
the new controller and thinking that maybe the so called cleaning action
is pushing the flapper to allow leakage.

The controller in an old toilet does not seem like a good idea as old
toilets were designed to use a lot of water. *I remember the old days
when a lot of us were adding bricks to the tank to use less water and
results were unsatisfactory.

I'm just a regular old home owner but these are my thoughts.

Either you're a woman named Frank, or you're a homosexual. *REAL MEN
dont put bricks in their toilet. *REAL MEN want toilets that use LOTS
of water. *The more the better. *REAL MEN connect two, three, or more
tanks to one toilet, and connect the flush handle to each one with
thick baling wire, heavy chain, and duct tape. That way all these
tanks will dump into the bowl at the same time. *Four 7-gallon tanks
seem to do a good job, that's 28 gallon per flush. *Better yet, a 250
gallon livestock tank can be modified to replace the standard toilet
tank. *That will flush down even the biggest turd from the BIGGEST
REAL MAN.

(Or use two, three, or four of them livestock tanks for the best flush
in town, and even God will be impressed by your manhood).- Hide quoted text -

I would agree but you missed one possibility, I'm on septic and well.
Water is free and I get all I want. OTOH I can suffer at the septic
end with wet drain field.
