Wirquin jolly flush system ?!

[Bodie16]

Help, the toilet is running the whole time. I have turned off the water, taken out the flush mechanism( the bit after the silver button ) and have looked for the part on the internet. I think maybe the grey part should have a spring in it but there isn't one. Can I only buy the whole flush system? There seems to be more than one size. Wirquin jolly flush it seems
I have visitors coming at the weekend and need it working. The whole toilet is boxed in and I don't know what to do. My knowledge of the workings of a toilet are nil, second only to the offside rule.

Could be a worn flush valve but I am unfamiliar with this particular type.

There are always spares to be had and even a complete new unit will set you back less than £20.

As long as you can isolate the water to the cistern and there is easy access to replace the valve then you ought to be able to tackle this yourself.

Search this forum and you will come up with more useful info. See below as one example.

I had this exact problem with Jollyfill Wirquin!

I found a troubleshooting guide on google which suggested diaphragm thingy needed replacing. I bought one off t'internet and after a bit of faffing
around on my part I managed to fix the problem by replacing said diaphragm. I was very proud of myself.

Hi Bodie,

You can purchase the complete flushing valve code number 14010401 from any local builders merchants, it is simply to fit as it will clip into the existing base inside the cistern bit like changing a light bulb.
