Default Toilet Cistern syphon replacement

Any help would be much appreciated with the following:
I have a close coupled toilet cistern and need to replace the syphon.
Is the syphon the same as the standard siphons available from b&q, wickes
etc or is there a special version for close coupled units?
Also the cistern is fastened to the bowl with two 6mm bolts with wingnuts
which are very tight.
I've tried wd40 but still cannot loosen them by hand or with pliers. Is
there a tool available to loosen tight wingnuts?
tia
