SNIP
I know someone who was well chuffed over Xmas when he changed syphon,
donut etc without leaks, only to find the screw holes in the the
cistern didn't quite line up when he'd finished.

Did he replace the cistern then? How come the holes moved? :-)


I think the new metal plate had a slightly raised section, so no amount
of tightening of the wing nuts would align the holes
