Default Toilet flapper leaking

040731 1947 - tflfb posted:

Toilet flapper leaking down a bit toilet refils in about 30 seconds, any
fixes short of replaceing the rubber flapper.

I already flushed and cleaned the flapper and the flapper seat.

Thanks

Tom



The best way to handle this is to watch it work. Take the cover off the
toilet tank and watch the flushing operation. When the flapper seats, put a
little pressure on it and see if you can make it seat better. Sometimes
these things just get old and out of alignment and don't position themselves
properly anymore, so a little tinkering with it may make all the difference.
