first, check to see if more vertical movement would indeed help it. just
lift the flapper by the chain and see what happens. if its just a matter of
not getting enough lift, bend the rod attached to the lever down a bit and
shorten the chain. voila, more lift.

if its just closing too fast i think others have covered that territory.

I installed a new toilet about a week ago and am having one problem. If
I push the lever and release, often the flapper closes before the tank
is empty not letting enough water into the bowl to complete the flush.
I've tried adjusting the chain and flush lever but can't get past this
problem. It seems to me that if the flapper would raise just a little
higher, it would work, but the lever only allows so much vertical
movement. All help appreciated. Thank you
