Hoping someone can help me with a small problem. My toilet has been filling slowly for ages - wasn't a problem when it was just me in the house but now its become noticeable.

I have taken off the hose to the bottom of the toilet to check the pressure and it is good (I assume spraying out at a rate of knots is a good thing). However when the valve (see picture below)

is attached the water feebly dribbles out, I mean it take about an hour + to refill the cistern. Can anyone shed any light on what might be the problem?

Check the washer inside the unit. Chances are this might needs replaced, or it could be a blockage in the unit.

I've just replaced the washer in mine after years of putting up with it, 2 min job cost £1.30 to fix!
