Hello,
When I flush my toilet, I have to hold down the handle until the bowl
is almost empty, or else the valve shuts off and it doesn't flush
completely. Anyone know why, and how I can fix it?

Thanks,
Jeff

This is Turtle.

If the towlet is less than 10 year or so. You got one of the Bill

Clinton
Water saver Towlets. It will only do what you want it to if you hold

her
down long enough. I have two of them in my house and fixing to try the
Tank assist tank to go in my towlet tank. It will make the towlet

flush
completely and not have to hold it down. I think it is made by

American
Standard. Now they do have the model already built into the new type
towlet you can buy from them. i have has a plumber look at the two

towlets
of mine and there is nothing you can do about it.

Whats a towlet? Is that like a towelet that you get after dinner at Red
Lobster?


This is Turtle.

Some times i spell like the locals pronounce the words in my area. Here

they pronounce it Tow let and not Toilet. Now if you go up
north or to any big citys outside Louisiana. They Use the true spelling of

Toilet.

Also here the Name He'bert is pronounced A'bear. I will spell it Abear.
