Default Toilet Draining Out

"Jeff & Kathy Brown" wrote in message

What would cause the water in the toilet tank to drain out completely?
There isn't any outside leak. Would it be the gasket at the bottom of the
ballcock? I put in a new ballcock thinking that this was the problem but
the water is still draining out. Any suggestions would be appreciated.


I'll try again. Right, this is an emty tank; not bowl!
Check the flapper - does it leak?
Does the ballcock turn on the water when you lower the ball? It should.
There may be a clog/plug in the pipe, or the inlet valve itself is
defective.
