American Standard Champion Toilet- Metering water level in bowl
I have mounted the refill tube's clip into a hole that is in the trip
lever arm, but will look again for a hole in the standpipe, because
that would allow avoidance of flexing the tube during each activation
of the trip lever. The after-flush water level is now great; has
never been so high. Should please my wife. [:-)
TNX info.

This AmStd Champion model is a modern design; no ballcock. Mine was
put into service in OCTober 2005. The lift chain had fallen away and
I reinstalled that to get the toilet to flush again, but perhaps the
tube should be pointed into the overflow tube ? It is now discharging
into the tank.
There's your problem. The small plastic tube should discharge right into the
overflow standpipe. Often there is a small holder built into the top of the
standpipe to hold the fill tube, but it might have a clip.
