Probably a simple one, isolator valve connecting to the plastic screw threaded (Getting technical here, sorry......) bit that goes through the cistern.....is leaking.

Should I use PTFE? it's wierd as it looks like it is trying to compress onto the plastic pipe.......

should there be another seal in place? The whole thing is at a rather dodgy angle which means the joint between the 2 is always under external pressure so I'm concerned it might need bending to line up correctly before trying to stop it leaking........

help!
 
Is your 15mm nut connecting directly onto the plastic connector ?.

You should have a tap connector(with fibre washer) in-between the 15mm nut and plastic connector.

Hope that helps
