oops. sorry, i missed that. I'll give it a go tonight. Many thanks for the advice. you all provide a great service!

Am i right in thinking that the tap connector is the bit on the top right of your picture and the large white washers go either side of the tank do i really need to replace the tap connector which seems to be in place and working fine at the moment? Can I not just screw the thread of the new...

Thanks. Is it acceptable to just replace the arm and valve that unscrews from the side of the tank rather than replace everything including the connector to the supply? I am confident enough to replace the arm but not necessarily the connector too.

Having originally thought I'd solved the problem, it now looks as though I'm going to have to replace the part and I'd like advice on one of two options which i think I have. 1) the simpler option as far as i can see would be to be to replace the ball float with a bigger one (it is quite...
