A model for how all maintenance videos should be made. To the point accurate information! Thank you!

[@Your-Self]

Thanks for watching and kind words!

[@bigdinlaca]

For real some videos would be like “oh yeah my wife broke it. She took this amazing dump the other day and that was when I found out that it wasn’t refilling fast enough because we had to flush it twice. Oh by the way, this toilet came with the house” blah blah blah

[@julieankhan.2801]

Im glad this vid addressed the real problem, and not just say replace. Especially when its relatively new. Great vid.

[@gatorbrigade1899]

Just an in between step I just discovered. I did the inside fill valve stuff and still no pressure. I then wrestled with the silver coil in back but couldn't get it off. As I was giving up and putting everything back together I decided to try sticking a bamboo skewer down the small opening in the fill valve and water gushed out. So this little extra step helped me avoid undoing the silver coil.

As soon as you said you had water maintenance on your street I knew this was what we needed as they've been redoing all our water lines for several months now!! We only needed to do the first two steps of rinsing those little inside filters on the fill kit and working perfect again!! Very impressive!

[@MutsPub]

Worked for me. I used needle nose pliers to remove plug. Plug could be "reamed" out and re-inserted if you need to control flow. I did not put it pack in. The fill tube that goes to over flow tube for filling tank, now has pressure so high it prevents plunger from going down to plug tank. I just left the fill tube float "free" and fill the tank. Works fine! I went from 5:42 fill time to :30 sec fill time! Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The only video that worked! My toilet kept hissing, it filled very slowly- and didnt have enough water to flush. but once i removed the top of the valve, i noticed tiny gunk easily removed with tweezers inside the tiny holes on the surface of the fill valve, and i wiped off gunk from the cap. It now fills up more easily, quicky, and consistently. Thanks.

Thanks! I fixed the toilet at work. Same valve you show in your video. It stopped working correctly the day after they fixed a water main break.

[@Your-Self]

Great job! I hope they'll compensate you somehow :)

[@funkchild75]

Thanks for helping me diagnose the problem with the toilet in my mom's bathroom. I ran through all steps and turns out it was a faulty gasket in the refill unit's cap. Remove the gasket. Works fine. Cleaned and replaced the gasket. Slow drip. Removed the gasket again. Works fine. Gonna try my hardware store to find a replacement. If not, I'll have to replace the whole unit. No worries either way. Thanks again!

Glad it was helpful, and thanks for watching!

[@Ben-qm9zq]

Ok, I'm back with my review of the information herein this video... Lol. Quick 3 minute fix...? Yes and No. Everything you posted worked. However, Apparently I have some other issue with the washer/pin. When I follow your instructions, the toilet flushes only once correctly then reverts back to 15 min fill up. There does not appear to be any debris in the system. It appears to be caused by the pin not pushing/pulling the washer. I've no idea how to fix that. So, for those watching/reading here, if your system is full of debris, the information in the video may work. That's all I got for now. Thanks all. Thumbs up👍

[@Your-Self]

It sounds like fill-valve is failing. You can change the top part of the fill-valve in under 10 min and under $10 yourself. Here is my old video for a different problem, but it shows how to replace it kzbin.info/www/bejne/q3OQpnaEipd_pJajr the full installation in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/q3OQpnaEipd_pJY

I can’t believe it I finally found the video that fits my exact scenario. We had a broken water meter and a construction company came out yesterday and dug it all up and since that time water it’s not filling into the tank I can’t believe there’s a video that’s just perfect for me thank you so much I just hope it works when I go through all the steps that you did. All the best🤗

[@Your-Self]

Good luck with your project!

[@lazerlazer]

@@Your-Self One question. What is the purpose of the screw in the line going from the water source to the basin? Do I have to worry about the juncture possibly leaking now since I took out the screw?

[@lazerlazer]

@@Your-Self Sorry about the posts I put up yesterday I wasn’t feeling very well and it wasn’t appropriate. I deleted both of them. Anyway can you please answer the question that I posed about the screw in the above post. Thanks so much again.

[@Your-Self]

I'm not sure what screw you are talking about. Maybe you could take a picture, post it on a sharing site, and provide the link here for me to look at it. Or create a short video and upload it on your channel.

[@lazerlazer]

@@Your-Self I tried to unscrew it and the screw actually crumbled I guess from age it’s already a completed job so I cannot videotape anything. Now everything works perfectly. I was just wondering what the purpose of the screw was in the first place thank you. I got lucky when I found your video because Yours was the only one of its kind
