Default ballcock problem ?

Hi all,

we have a concealed cistern, with a "Macadee" type filling valve. Ordinarily
this fills to the bottom of the cistern, so is quiet.

I noticed when refilling the liquid cleaner, that when filling now, a little
water appears to leak from the top of the assembly, which has a little tube
from it as though you could put a pipe on it ... the leak isn't from the
tube though , it's from round this blue piece of plastic that seems to make
a seal into the main part of the valve. When I pressed the blue bit, it
seemed to leak more.

Is this anything to worry about ? If so, what can I do ?

regards

Jethro
