just put in the new Kohler Wellworth

1) do I need shims? The installer of the previous toilet did a super job
on
making the floor even and level. So the new toilet does not rock and is
level.
However, it does not make contact with the floor all around the right rim.
So
should I put any shims in the gap, or should I trust that the inner feet
are
bearing the weight well enough?

2) this thing takes 1'45" to refill. Is that the design, or is something
wrong? The water feed line is wide open.

3) I noticed I have to hold the lever down in order to get all the water
out
from tank to bowl. Is that normal? If I just push down then release the
lever
(like with the old model toilet), a lot of water stays in the new model's
tank
as the outflow valve closes immediately.

Thanks.

If it does not rock, I would just caulk the gap with a quality acrylic latex
caulk.

You hold the lever down for number 2s. Urine you just press and release.
