Morning all
I had a cistern with a broken flushing system, I havd since fitted a remote button operated drop valve flushing system. The fitting of it has been no problem + fairly straight foward. It is virtually identical to the pic on this link, bottom of pg 1 + the middle of the pic:

Problem is that once the toilet is flushed + the cistern fills back up, the drop valve doesn't seem to be sealing the cistern shut - therefore you can hear water leaking thru + into the pan. As the water leaks the cistern then fills back up........so it's on a constant cycle of leaking + then filling up once the float triggers the water back into the cistern. I have try to adjust (trial + error) what ever I can but to no avail.
There is a screw rod fitting which seems to be the flush capacity adjustment? Then there is a flap on the body side, that you can pull up + down, no idea what that does. Then where the cable attaches to the push button flush, there is a very small adjuster (which only the smallest screw driver can turn) which again i have no idea about.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
