I've tried changing that darn washer and it still leaked. So I went with
the quick-fix as well.
Emptied the tank, dried it out well, then applied a fair amount of silicone
on and around the tank's nut/bolt and washer. Let it dry and my leak is gone
for good.

It is a pain when the tank to bowl bolts start to leak. I have
successfully fixed them by drying out the tank well and coating the top
of the bolt well with silicone caulk. Be sure to use enough. Good
luck, RW
