Fluidmaster, Flush Yo Mama (and Granma, too!)!
I have an American "Standard" K54 foilet from 1954. Perhaps 18 years ago I installed a Fluidmaster Flusher Fixer kit. Worked fine, for a long time. Still works fine, but it needs a replacement flapper. I search everywhere, can't find one. Call Fluidmaster, wait 20+ min., nobody home. Fluidmaster has a "New, Improved" Flusher Fixer kit. Totally unlike the old. I go to Homey-Flogging-Depot, that's all they got. Damned thang looks like a Rube Goldberg Frankenstein. Fluidmaster doesn't support replacement parts for it's products. Howcum we don't have a reliable and dependable toilet fixtures company?? Terminally ****ed, AQ "The monkey and the baboon was playing 7-up. The monkey won the money but he scared to pick it up. The monkey stumbled, mama. The baboon fell. The monkey grab the money and he run like hell!" - from "Dirty Motherfuyer", Roosevelt Sykes, around 1935 |

Home Depot does not sell things that are found at other distributors. |

I suggest a complete all-in-one kit. |
