Hi guys hope everyone is safe and well and busy doing DIY jobs around the house etc..
I've just tried to replace my toilet flush valve with a fluidmaster dual flush from screw fix. I've swapped the parts over in the cistern but come to a problem. The threaded pipe at the bottom of the new flush cylinder that comes out of the cistern is the same size as the pipe that goes into the back of the toilet. The old threaded pipe on the previous flush cylinder was wider and slotted over the flush connector pipe because it was wider (hope I'm making sense so far ).
So I've taken it all our of the cistern thinking I've got to return it all and get a flush system with the same measurements etc. Is there a way I can use the new flush system with the existing flush pipe? Can I use some sort of connector like a flush connector seal so I can just slot it over the bottom of the flush cyclinder and also the flush pipe? Thanks in advance.
