WTH!! Finally got hold of a plumber and scheduled to come in the morning. Thought to google the issue and came across this video... This fixed my issue!! Just texted the plumber to cancel! I owe you a drink my friend!!! Thank you

[@ThatFixItGuy]

I’m so glad it worked for you! And glad we saved you a little cash! Hope we can help again!

@OneDayAfterAnother sounds like you need a flapper with a float. Korky makes a good one.

[@TheBeautifullife04]

My mom just blamed me for breaking her toilet and washer (I don't live with her). Found this video. Fixed the issue. She's going to be amazed after she tinkles. Next up, need to find a washer machine video. Fix the issue. Then, I'll take a break from visiting for a while. Don't want to be blamed for anything else... Raised my damn blood pressure.

[@meiwu3192]

@@TheBeautifullife04 Thank you for your video, it's very helpful, for my toilet (10 years old), i can take out cover which is blue color, your is pink color, but i can not take out inside white part, it seems it fixed there, i can not clean inside, do you have any ideas what i can do? Can i put little vinegar inside that it may clean out these calcium which plug the water?

[@AA-yx2tn]

🤷Nop, it didn't work, just a waist of time. Very cheep advertising from a Layer "friend"🤮

[@kimmarie3014]

Thank you so much. I’m 62 and on a limited income, so I really didn’t want to call a plumber. I was able to follow along and fix my toilet myself.

[@katydid2k]

😆

[@spyrus_4359]

OK, this helped me a ton. I thought maybe my toilet water was a different water source because all of a sudden, not slow progression, the toilet filled at a trickle. I called the HOA president saying we might have a break on secondary water, because all of my other water was fine. Turns out, it's not a separate source. There was soooo much crap built up in that valve (looks like calcium mostly( and after a cleaning of the valve, toilet fills like brand new. I couldn't get the full hose off. It's basically welded on there with junk. But I didn't need to. ❤❤❤❤. Life saver! Well, you and the HOA president who gave me the idea to check that valve in the 1st place. You gave me the "how".

[@marcarvalho86]

Thank you so much!!! That absolutely did the trick. Saved me a bunch of time and money.

[@Heyitsdes1]

Thank you! Husband is at work, and his marine friend is flying in as we speak! I was desperate to fix the guest toilet 😂😂😂

[@gigantiscrap]

Omg bro you just fix my toilet 100% thank you

[@2003mikec]

Thanks for the video. I have the same type of fluidmaster fill valve and I cleaned it out. It is much faster filling now - but it is still slow compared to my other toilets. It takes ~ 5 minutes still!

[@sandy-001]

I like how you show us what tricks you know to try and fix things, instead of just replacing it because its a bit older. Thanks again!

[@ThatFixItGuy]

It is so crazy to me how so much stuff gets thrown away these days when it can be fix. Thank you for watching Sandy!

[@thomaswagner6021]

Great video. My problem is a little different. First flush is fine, but fill is slow and sometimes incomplete. Turn off water supply completely and then back on, and it fills fast and complete. Next flush, same thing, slow and incomplete, but turn off water supply and back on, it fills fast and complete. This repeats for every flush. Took off the fill valve, flushed it and cleaned it. No change, only get a fast and complete fill after turning the water supply completely off and then back on. Baffling to me what is the problem and how to fix. Might it be an incorrect rubber seal? or defective valve assembly? This is a brand new toilet!

[@ThatFixItGuy]

Wow. The toilet is new. I would take hose off the toilet and run it into a bucket and see if you get some debris. What style of shut off valve do you have?

[@djratino]

Could be like me. Could be a rock behind the shutoff valve. My problem may be copper dust in the line where a plumber changed out my shower. It didn't do it until they sawed the pipe to fit the new shower.

[@andygroce490]

I'm having the same problem. Shut off water and turn it on then it fills fine.

[@klutch14u]

Sounds like a plugged line or bad shutoff valve. If you mess with troubleshooting it I'd spend that effort replacing it. Shut off water main. Remove valve. With the valve removed I'd figure out a way to turn the water main on and take a gallon or 2 of water out of the line. Use someone else to turn the main on and stay near it. Use a bucket, cup, etc to catch the water. Do this so if something is working its way up to the valve and clogging it, it'll purge. 5 gallons would be even better to make sure it works its way out. Then replace the valve with a new one.

[@reed4764]

I'm having the exact same issue. how'd you fix it?

[@stansmall1994]

Wife found your video. I watched it a couple of times, then put my laptop on top of toilet, stopped it where needed. Didn't have water pressure you showed when taking flow unit apart. Took apart the filler line & dug out the rubber insert. Reconnected filler line (minus rubber insert), allowing only 1/2 water volume at shut off. Flushed toilet & filled with 45 seconds verses 4+ minutes when this exercise began. It's amazing what a little stop & go instructions can accomplish!!! My wife & I both want to thank you..........

[@ThatFixItGuy]

So glad this was able to help you. If you folks don't mid please share and help us grow. Thank you
