Thanks to your video, I no longer need to call out a plumber for this. Many thanks.

If you have a running flush yes it's usually the small seal which hitted. If that doesn't work the float valve may be unrepairable. The float pushes up a lever that operates a small white pip in the seal. Unfortunately there is a tiny rubber seal in the float pivot arm. If that seal goes you will need a whole new float valve.

Before you replace the unit get a rag or sponge into the socket. Clean off any grot so the rubber bears down onto a clean surface. If any grot gets between the mating face it can leak.

Great video,well done.

Id spend ages trying to find a guide that matched my toilet, this was the one!! All fixed!!🎉

Perfect for me as I had the exact same problem with the exact same toilet. Great video

Super helpful video - thanks❤

Very helpful- like you I changed the seal on the cistern but water is pouring in through the inlet valve … looks like it’s the second one need to fit … hope that fixes it - thank you!

my problem is that while putting in a new valve fixes it, it's only temporary. i bought a 2 pack a month ago and a 5 pack of diaphragms a week ago and i've already used 5 out of 7 of them. they work and fix the leak for a couple days and then it starts again. the leak is a constant torrent and i'm having to use the shut off valve every time i need to flush. lifting up on the bar doesn't solve it so i'm out of ideas what it could be.

Great mate thanks

Very helpful, thanks.

Thank you for this video. Your toilet was the only one on you tube that seemed to resemble mine so very glad I stumbled across it.

Thanks for your video! Its 2024 and it helped me fix my toilet! Thank you!

Very helpful video

Thanks so much for posting this. Both seals were damaged on mine after 12 years. The edges of the flush seal had crumbled away over time, and the diaphragm, although visually sound, had a pin hole in it. The flush seal was out of stock in 5 places I tried, but my local Wolseley came up trumps for both items. The replacement flush seal is actually white & the diaphragm is the same minus the little ribs. The SVO1967 flush mechanism has apparently been discontinued now, but the seals can still be sourced at the moment. I bought spare items just in case. Both work perfectly. Top work sir! 👏👏👏

Another thank you. Showed me my problem and how to fix it 😀

Brilliant tutorial! Thank you so much!

You've helped yet another person. Thank you!

Great video, thank you so much. After seeing this it was just a new washer and clip from Amazon for just over £4 for the flush valve and all sorted.

I have this exact system, so very helpful, thankyou.

I took off the outflow flush valve and the seal was badly deteriorated. However as I took the seal off I accidentally turned the mechanism and the internal column came out. I tried to put it back in again but it won't stay in and when I tried to test the pad for the button when pushed down now doesn't do anything. Do I need to have the new seal on or have I messed it up completely?

Thank you so much for this video. Exactly my cistern. You are a life saver. Many many thanks

Freehansa, thank you so much. What a great tutorial. And you present it in such an easy to follow manner. I have the exact model and issue so it was perfect and saved me paying a plumber.

Thank you!!!! Your step by step has saved me a fortune and I have fixed the problem thanks to you!!!!!🙌

Huge thanks. Great and detailed explanation.

So helpful for me! Thank you for uploading this video. Take care 😊

THANK YOU

its better just to replace the infill valve with a updated one

its called QT quarter turn

at least toilet bowl is clean

You, sir, are a life-saver. The toilet was driving me nuts as it would be constantly re-filling (mostly at night, for some reason - I think it was doing it deliberately to annoy me! 😄). I finally got around to fixing after seeing my latest water bill! 😬 I'd always thought that plumbing was some dark art, but this was so simple to do, so thank you, thank you, you've probably saved me a small fortune over the next few years. 👍🏻

Great video, thank you

Legend, kinda found what was wrong then watch your video 😅

Thank you for the heads-up! I replace the whole inlet trying to stop a running bowl but still have the issue so it's the flush seal I need... All these fixes are cheap until you buy the wrong parts :/

Thank you. It’s too helpful for me.

Awesome thank you so much. Delightfully explained and demonstrated. Genuinely helped me out

Very useful video, I have placed the flushing valve and the inlet valve diaphragm. I would like to how to remove the fulcrum arm to replace the rubber washer under the arm ?

I have the same inlet valve and had the same problem with replacing the diaphragm. Except in my case I had to use the one with the ribbed pattern. Using the other one, even with the raised edge left the cistern continually filling.

Thank you, saved me on Christmas Eve!!!!👍🏻👏🏼

Really helpful as had previously received the wrong washer. Thank you

Thanks so much. As a result of your video I managed to buy the replacement valve seal for £4 online, and fitted it easily

Well done sir 👏👍

i got the same flusher , bu tthe seal looks ok after cleaning , i guess the size of it reduced over time and no longer seals around the edge

Mate you’re a legend. Our ensuite toilet has been overflowing like this for god knows how long. At least a year since we moved in i guess, but these past few months its been really troubling me to the point of losing sleep over it and being reluctant to call a plumber to pay plumber prices for what i assumed would be a simple fix. I had already tried the first fix which didn’t work but the second solution did the charm so thank you so much for providing the knowledge and giving me the confidence to fix it. I can now sleep without hearing a distant trickle/ hissing noise!!

Brilliant so helpful

thanks, i needed to find the easiest way to get the retaining clip off as it was being stubborn

Bless you and thank you so much! This is a brilliant guide. My silent, almost invisible stream had doubled my water bill!

Thanks for your Video I fixed the toilet with 4 pounds only!

amazing video you have given me the confidence to fix my own toilet x

this video is very helpful, thank you so much - was able to change my toilet, saved me the cost of a plumber after two visits - bless you
