Hi all,
The plumber took my toilet flush apart and didn't put it back together. I am struggling to figure out how to do it. I.put photos below. Unfortunately there is no brand on it.
My questions:
- which way round does the joint go and does it go between the two white circles?
- what are the red and blue slides for?
- how do the two tubes fit together and what is the purpose of the small tab that sticks out on the longer one?
I reassembled it as best I could but when I put it in the toilet runs constantly (the joint is fine and the bottom hole also looks fine). It was already doing this but is much worse. Also, when I flush it doesn't stay open (the tube just drops back down straight away).
We can't afford to get someone to replace the whole thing so I would like to try and put it back together. The plumber didn't want to because he said the running can't be fixed. But I am happy just to turn the water off when we are not using it.
Any help appreciated.
