  • @daviddowns7552
    @daviddowns7552 Рік тому +2

    the cap on mine wont come off. i wanted to do this. idk whaats wrong but it absolutely wont simply come off. i pressed down and turned it counter clockwise i pulled twisted ect. the little stubborn piece of crap wont come off. if i turned harder it was gonna break the fill valve apart.? this apt is old so i guess toilet and parts are also. this pisxes me off. nothing ive tried on you tube works. it would have messed mine up worse and id be responsible. the bitxx msg here wont fix anything and youtube just dont seem to work!!

    You missed a step. When you have it all apart put the cup over the top and then turn the water back on flushing the pipe out sometimes debris gets caught in the pipe or in the valve to open the valve up and blast it and then turn it off and put it back together. This is information coming from a guy who's been a handyman for 30 years

      Check your flapper after flushing to see if it relaxes back down evenly. If it doesnt you may have to make adjustments. Also, if you washed that gasket and it's still leaking, you may need a new one. Go to a home center in the toilet plumbing section and buy a new one, its called a "toilet fill valve seal." They're like $2.50 :)
