I had a kohler one piece that was never right until I put all kohler parts in it and had a tech tell me how many links on the chain you had to hook After reading this thread, I think before the OP wastes yet more money on parts, it's time to CALL A PLUMBER! Why a plumber? The **** is going down the pipe and the water is coming to fill the tank. He needs tech rep who knows about that toilet ... and he is probably on line. May be time for a new toilet it it is older. Comfort height is nice. |

Not only flushing issues, but it seemed to back up far too often and no amount of snaking it would help. One day I decided I had enough, and bought a new toilet. Problem solved! Toilets are not complicated like cars or electronics, but some of them seem to just "wear out" over time, and no matter how many parts are replaced they remain a pain in the ass. Life is too short to waste hours screwing with a bad toilet, when a new toilet is not all the costly. From what the OP said, he probably already spent half the cost of a new toilet on flappers and other parts, and that dont include his time.... |

At least since the government started mandating standards The newest ones work well now, not like the first edition. I've been happy with my newer "low flush" toilet. But I had one of those "early ones" and it was horrid. |
