Further to my sealant removing antics in the following thread...
//www.diynot.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=30791
...I've managed to take out the broken part that's causing it to constantly overflow back into the bowl. In the image below, it's the white part. In the bottom right hand image you can see what's causing the problem.
The main body of the siphon** now can not latch onto this white part properly and so a leak occurs. The tank empties slightly and keeps refilling because the float drops to the point where it has to let water in from the inlet pipe... and this obviously keeps repeating.
Anyway, I've scouted around a number of plumbing supply stores in my local area and nobody seems to have this siphon available or if they can get hold of it then there's about a 2 week wait
Does anyone know of where I can buy one of these online?
(** I'm not plumbing expert by any stretch of the imagination and so if the thing I have pictured is not called the siphon then please feel free to correct me )
