your video is still out here 8 years later saving lives, just want you know that ♥
You're most welcome. Comments like this make my DAY! 😁️ I'm glad to know I could help you and that you got value from my work here. I made this video to help people just like you. Thank you for watching, commenting and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
I'm a 59 year-old-woman whose never done anything like this ever before!! Not only did I successfully replace parts for one tank BUT TWO!!! Thank you for such a detailed video.
You are most welcome. I am very happy to know I could help you. Thank you very much for watching and the kind words. All the best.
I started with another video, but I had to leave it because it didn't make several thing clear. This video gives all the explanations that I need, and I'll be using it tomorrow--I'm too tired now--to install the toilet tank repair kit. I'll be back after I finish the job. Oh, I just noticed the presence of some old-timers here. Well, I beat them all. I'm 81, but I don't feel any reason for boasting. I still have everything I need to do the job. I'm just a not a very handy handyman, but age has to do with the unhandy part.
You are most welcome. Thank you for watching, commenting and the kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
I am a 58 year old woman that's been divorced and on my own for 16 years. With the help of online videos, I've installed and repaired all kinds of things I never imagined I'd be responsible for by myself. I especially liked this one because it was real time and you ran into difficulties just like most of us do, making the repair/installation process realistic. This made for a longer video than others but was worth it to me because you shared problem-solving techniques. My children are all grown and on their own now and they know more than I did partly because of watching and helping me be the do-it-yourself lady I have become. Every time I successfully complete another project, I believe I am awesome! Thank you for your help!
+Dorothy Haws You are most welcome. It's heart warming to me to hear stories like this. The feeling of success and achievement in getting a job like this done correctly is great. There is a pride in doing yourself and getting it right. I am glad I could help. Thanks for watching and the kind comments.
Helpful guide. People like you are the reason RUclips allows me to know how to do everything
Richard, thank you for leaving the mistakes in the video. Everyone makes them regardless of how much experience or training you have had. By leaving them in, you make everyone aware of such things. It takes a strong personality to not edit them out. I've been doing this for years,and I still learned a few things by observations I've made while watching your video.
You are most welcome. I am going to continue to make videos in this fashion (Mistakes not edited out) so people can learn from my mistakes, lol. Again, if I am making them then others will probably make them too. Thank you for understanding, your kind comments and watching.
Dude..thanks for taking the time to make other peoples lives easier!
Bill Griffin You're welcome. Glad I could help and thanks for watching.
Very clearly done step-by-step video of how to do a FluidMaster Tank Repair Kit installation. Mr. Lloyd is a calm, patient instructor who isn't hyped up on caffeine and he takes you thru the installation steps at a pace anyone can follow. If only every RUclips presenter could follow his lead we could all learn a thing or two.
Thanks so much again! I am a woman that has changed 2 toilet guts on my own thanks to your videos. You speak clear and easy and make sure the details are understandable. Yay! .......no more money for the plumber. 😃
You are most welcome. I am very happy to hear I could help you save money and give you the satisfaction of getting this job done on your own. Thanks for watching and the kind comments. All the best.
Thanks so much! I am a 33 year old female and was able to easily install this kit for my widowed mother! Very well made video!
I am happy to know I could help you both. Thank you. All the best.
I just watched a bunch of these toilet tank guts replacement videos from different people and I think this one had the most good information. Now I don't feel like a complete basket case to get this job done. Thanks Richard for doing a 'real' good video.
Thanks so much for this! I'd been putting of fixing my toilet for a long time out of fear of screwing something up, but but your video removed all the mystery and helped me finally get it done
This was perfect. You saved me lots of aggravation. The written instructions that came with this kit are frustrating. Your video DIY instruction was excellent. Thank you
Thank you so much man! A few minutes in and i knew i could throw away the included vague instructions. Your in-depth instructions were much appreciated
Thank you for a clear and detailed instruction video. My husband and I learned from you and got our toilet fixed! We are seniors and most appreciative.
Perfect! I followed along step-by-step and now the toilet works like new! And best of all, it all worked on the first try! No leaks! Thanks for your video, great job!
This was so very helpful! I bought the Fluidmaster kit at my local Lowe’s, got it home, and was totally buffaloed by the “easy installation” instructions. After looking at the parts for a couple of days, I found this video and felt totally confident about proceeding. My only issue was a big triangular rubber gasket on the bottom of my Kohler’s toilet. I called Kohler (SUPER not helpful) and Fluidmaster (equally not helpful). After much deliberation, I reused one of the three bolts from my Kohler and the six rubber gaskets in this kit and threw the triangular gasket in the garbage. Richard, you are my hero! Thank you!
Wow, Great fool proof video with great instructions and full view of installation, lower and upper parts. Very rarely I see that much care taken by the presenter so that you don't have any blind spot in your sight!
Great job, great visuals, and great audio. I really liked how you explained, and showed what mistakes you made and how to fix them. I finally feel confident in how all the internal parts work, and at what level the parts need to be set. Also, what I should be looking for with running water, leaks, etc.. Before this video I wanted to stick with the old replacement parts. I didn't want to deal with the new types like this Fluidmaster. Now I feel confident in switching over to the newer replacement parts. Thank you for taking the time to make this video.
5 STAR Video. One of the best DIY repair demos I have seen!
Excellent job doing highly articulate yet spontaneous narration.
.
Thank you very much for watching and the kind comments. All the best.
I’ve had to gut 2 of our toilets and replace them with these kits (which are great!) within the last 2 years. This video got me through it both times! You rock my man!
Excellent video. You made sure to address proper preparation, safety and function checks.
The presentation was clear and effective.
This was just what I needed to ensure that I was fully prepared to accomplish this task.
Thank you.
THANKYOU for such a great, informational video!!!!! I'm SO NOT mechanically inclined and even I was able to complete this job!!!!!!!! You're GREAT!!!!!
Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge to ease the efforts of others as they embark on the many do-it-yourself adventures that present themselves to us in our daily lives.
I got everything I needed within the first 20 minutes of your video, but as somebody else remarked--your presentation gave me the confidence and really, 2nd-hand experience from watching you that I needed to just get it done.
Super easy in hind sight.
Anybody with a slight mechanical inkling can probably finish the job after just watching the parts on removal, as reinstallation is essentially the reverse process.
GOD bless you!
You are most welcome. I hope to inspire confidence with my videos and I try to be as detailed as possible so there is no question as to how to do it. I appreciate you kind comments. Thank you very much. All the best and God bless you also.
Thank you Richard! Your video proves that even a 65-year-old lady can fix her toilet (with a LITTLE help from her husband to lift the tank). I love the step-by-step thoroughness of your instructions. I looked at another video but found it lacking in some details that I needed, so I'm glad I stumbled upon your video. One skill of a good teacher is the ability to put yourself in the learner's shoes -- yes I need to know which direction a gasket should face, etc. At one point my husband came in and tried to bull his way into helping me. I told him to get out -- I want to know that I've done every step correctly.
Phyllis Olrich You are most welcome. I am very happy I could help you get job done. Thank you so much for watching and the very kind comments.
thanks a great set of instructions
You are most welcome. Thanks for watching and commenting. All the best.
Phyllis...My thoughts exactly!
You remind me of my father-in-law back in the 60s. I learned more from him than imaginable. Much thanks.
Liked and subbed! You really helped me out of a bind!
I have a tip to share, and an additional point about mounting the tank onto the bowl.
Tip: When removing the supply line and shut off valve, I taped some aluminum foil to the bathroom wall under the valve. I chose foil because you can easily form it in case of a leak, and guide the water into a dish or onto a towel.
Also, my instructions for the fluidmaster say to use washers and nuts on the tank bolts, then ADDITIONAL washers and nuts to secure the tank onto the bowl. The instructions have likely been updated since you published this video.
Thanks Richard. You were very clear and thorough. I have never done any toilet plumbing EVERY and your video is very empowering. You are great!
Glad I could help. You are most welcome. Thanks for watching.
Thank you! I'm feeling proud I fixed that on my own! I couldn't have done it without this video!
My hero! Thanks for including all of the little "important notes" for those of us who don't know the first thing about plumbing. Loved that bit of magic at @ 32:30 where the base cleans itself! ....and....just a side note...I have that very same "masterpiece" of behind-the-tank art. Same size...same shape! :)
Every step thoroughly described and completed.I needed your hint for overflow height and valve height adjustment.Perfect DIY video!
Great tutorial! I especially appreciated the troubleshooting (fill level, chain length, channel locks, etc).
You are most welcome. I am glad to know I could help you. Thank you for watching, commenting and the kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Thank You Mr Lloyd for teaching other people ..God Bless you
Richard, wonderful video! Great use of fast forward, and the small difficulties you had to overcome made for excellent learning. A really terrific video for which I appreciate your help. Nice job!!
You are most welcome. I am very happy to know I could help you. Thank you very much for watching and the kind words. All the best.
Thank you!
This is the BEST video I've found for replacing the tank kit with the Fluidmaster 400.
You are most welcome. Thanks for commenting and the very kind words. I appreciate them. All the best.
Five stars! Great video - thanks for not editing out the less than perfect parts. It really helped us to see where we would have gone wrong, and since it was a job for my mother-in-law, there was a lot of pressure.
You're most welcome. I'm glad and very happy to know that I could help you and keep you in good standing with the in-laws. Thank you so much for watching, commenting and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Sir I appreicate you, the time, and effort you put into this video. It saved me money, and let me put a stamp on my man card, #SALUTE
You are most welcome. I am glad to know I could help you. Thank you for watching, commenting and the kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Thank you so much Richard.....I'm 77 yrs old and it was a pretty easy task for me. Saved me some bucks. Video was great, I followed it step by step.
You are most welcome. I am very glad I could help you get this done. Thanks for watching and the kind comments.
Thank you for this!!! I was able to follow along and install to fix my leaky old toilet perfectly! Your level of detail was perfect! 1 down, 2 to go! Thank you again!
You are most welcome. Glad I could help. Thank you for watching, commenting and the kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.
I never thought I would like a video about toilet repair, but here we are. Thanks a ton man!
Richard, thanks so much for making this video! Extremely detailed and seriously helpful. I give you a 21-flush salute, good sir.
You are most welcome. Thank you for watching, commenting and the kind words. All the best.
Watched this before tackling our toilet. Had no issues whatsoever other than the valve being too small. Buying a new part tomorrow but the process is essentially finished! Thank you so much for this video. I’ve always been too nervous to do any plumbing before this but now I’m really confident!!
Thank you for watching, commenting and the kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.
Great job. I needed the refresher. I'm glad you included the part at the end about the excess chain. It can get missed, and it doesn't always get tangled under the flapper valve. But sooner or later it will tangle, usually on your last flush before leaving on a weekend vacation. Make sure it is short enough (but not too short) even if it does not tangle on the first flush. That is a lesson learned on my part. Well done.
Thank you very much for watching, the feedback and the kind words. I appreciate it. All the best.
Thanks mate! My tank cracked out of nowhere and i had to replace it and after watching your video, i did not even need to read the manual. Install went smooth as butter. Thanks
This was absolutely SO HELPFUL - THANK YOU so much Richard!
Thanks. This was very helpful. You explained things in a way where anyone can understand. And you went back and added text to certain parts of the video to correct yourself or to emphasize something important. Which means you put a lot of effort into making this.
Really appreciate the time you took to make the video and share it. I found one issue with your process that I want to bring to your attention. The tank bolts need to use the thinner nuts before the regular nut. Basically the correct order is for the bolt head to go through rubber washer, bottom of the tank, metal washer, thin nut, toilet bowl, rubber washer, metal washer regular nut. This allows you to directly tighten the rubber inside tank with the thin nut. Then you tighten the regular nut for the tank to the bowel. Some will have three bolts instead of two and they provide extra rubber washers for this but you need to reuse your bolt and nuts. There is a correct order of hardware parts diagram in step 4 of the instructions that will make this more clear.
You are most welcome. Thank you for watching, commenting and the kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.
I used the same exact kit, I put in the bolts the way it was described in the instructions. The second rubber gaskets protect the porcelain on the bowl. But it works great, I put this kit on a 68 year old toilet. Unfortunately my disassembly wasn't as smooth as yours the flapper and over flow tube were extremely corroded and improperly installed. I had to carefully cut off the brass assembly with a reciprocating saw. Now the toilet works better than it has in years. The adjustable flapper helps control the amount of water that goes thru the system. Also it's a great idea that the fill valve assembly is height adjustable.
I'm glad and happy to know I could help you. Thank you for watching, commenting and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Today the flapper valve snapped at the base the same as yours and I did not want to have to call a plumber. I purchased the same repair kit and you explained everything with such great detail. I started to panic when I opened it and looked and the installation manual but watching this video I have a great deal of confidence of installing this kit just right. Thanks!
Great video, just installed the same kit in our bathroom and watching your video before hand was so beneficial. Thank you.
You are most welcome. Thanks for the kind comment and watching.
Thank you so much Richard. I have an older Mansfield toilet with virtually the same guts as yours. My local hardware store didn't have much of a selection of Mansfield parts, so I took a chance on the Fluidmaster. I watched another video, but it just didn't seem right. Your video was very easy to follow and I'm glad I watched it. My toilet worked the first time I flushed it and dry on the outside! I'm easily frustrated by the in package directions and found your video perfect. Thank you so much!
You are most welcome. Thank you very much for watching and the kind words. All the best.
Thank you so much for all your help. My biggest challenge in the last 2 days was removing the 3 bolts under tank and I did have to hacksaw one the bolts as it was stuck in place for 14 years! I couldn't of done it without your clarity in directions and your great video close-ups! Now to take a Motrin and call it a day😉🙋🏻
You are most welcome. Glad I could help. Thank you for watching, commenting and the kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.
I greatly appreciated the level of detail and that you explained things so clearly. Some videos tend to make assumptions that the audience has a basic understanding of terminology. My first toilet repair was a great success. 😄
You are most welcome. Thank you for watching, commenting and the kind words. I am very happy to hear you were successful at the repair and that I was able to help. All the best.
Thanks so much. Much easier than reading the instructions, plus all the extras that pop up along the way that aren't in the instructions. I'd give you 5 thumbs up if I could.
You are most welcome. Thanks for understanding that I leave the mistakes I make in the video because I know that if it happened to me, it's likely to happen to others. I would rather you learn from my mistakes. Glad I could help you out. Thanks for watching
Oooh my gosh! I followed your instructions, step by step and I DID IT! I am so thankful to your video!!!!
Thanks Lloyd... this was my first "plumbing project" and it worked flawlessly...
That's great to hear. You are welcome. I am happy I was able to help you get it done. Thanks for watching and the kind comment.
Thank you so much for this video! It's been great help and I was kind of proud to repair the toilet by myself!
You are most welcome. Congratulations! I am glad to know I could help. Thank you for watching, commenting and the kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
From one Handyman to another, I thought the video was well planned & very detailed & informative. Camera angles were excellent. Good point which you made, Don’t pull chain out from gasket if stuck which most people would have done. I would say this is one of the Better video’s. Anyone should be able to follow your instructions & complete the repair.
Thank you- I think I can install the repair kit myself now. I appreciate your step by step approach- clear and easy to follow!
You are most welcome. Thanks for watching and the kind comments. You can do it. All the best.
Richard Lloyd and
this was a great help.
imagine going into the bathroom and finding the floor soaked and wondering why - toilet tank bolts leaking is why.
i bought this kit last year because the float valve was leaking out the top when flushed so now was the time to fix this. dremel with a cutting wheel + makita 5" grinder = removal of rusty tank bolts.
your presentation was easier than the instructions, thank you.
robert and angry red head wife
Thanks so much for this. I only had to replace the old float / refill valve, but this was a perfect video for that. I didn't replace parts that didn't need replacing - so now I have spare parts in case they ever do go.
Hi Richard, your video came in very handy. I followed it to the T and it came out great. Thanks and I appreciate your time and effort put into this tutorial. Again, thanks, Josh
Just bought the exact same toilet repair kit . I can't wait to get started. Very informative and easy to follow. Thank You!
You are most welcome. I am very glad I could help you. Thanks for watching.
Richard, thank you so much for this video. I bought the exact same kit and was really confused with the setting the height of the overflow valve and I did what you did with comparing the height to the old piece. And it also seemed like my toilet tank is the same as yours. This video helped so much.
You are most welcome. I am happy I could help you out with this. BTW it's still working great and I am going to buy two more for the other toilets. Thanks for the kind comment and watching.
I'd like to add my voice: thanks for filming and posting this video -- it really made my install much easier. Toilet is working great now!
I am very happy to hear I could help you get it fixed. Thanks for watching and the kind words.
Thanks for sharing, it was helpful. My kit came with six rubber washers so I used the extras between the tank and the toilet for a little extra cushion. I also found that if you have a pipe cutter, it makes a much cleaner cut than a hacksaw would. I didn't have a hacksaw handy so I didn't have a choice. Worked out just fine! Thanks again.
You are most welcome. Thank you for watching, commenting, the valuable feedback and the kind words. I appreciate it greatly. I am happy to know I could help. All the best.👍😀
Well done, Richard. I followed your video beat for beat and had a small (really huge!) victory now that our leaky toilet is fixed! Thanks for posting!
You are most welcome. I am very happy to know I could help. Thanks for watching and the kind comments. I really appreciate them. All the best.
Thank you! The flapper gasket seal and exterior rubber grommet had degraded and was leaking. On further inspection after 23 years use, all the rubber gaskets were iffy. Your video clearly took me through the replacement process including adjustments.
You're most welcome. Comments like this make my DAY! 😁️ I'm glad to know I could help you and that you got value from my work here. I made this video to help people just like you. Thank you for watching, commenting and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
@@richardlloydusa Richard,I could not loosen the octagonal flange on the underside of the water tank so got out my hack saw and in a minute cut it off. No expensive tools needed, just care not to nick the ceramic.
Hey that works! I probably should have done that with mine too. It was cross threaded all the way down. It was a bear to get it off. Thank you so much again for commenting. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
I just received an estimate from a licensed plumber for 2 of these installations in my home. Parts and labor totaled $274. Your great video has given me the confidence to do this myself. As long as I don't drop the tank, I should save quite a bit. Thanks!
You are most welcome. I am glad to know I could help. Thank you for watching, commenting and the kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Thank-you! Excellent demonstration and a great reference for me as I went about installing my kit. You explained things so clearly and the camera work was right on! Good Job!
+Cheryl Heal You are most welcome. Thank you so much for watching and the very kind comments.
Thank you so much for this comprehensive video! Took me awhile, but installed it with no problem.
Hey, it’s 2020 and you’re still saving the day man. Thank you so much for this tutorial.
Thank you so much for taking the time to post this! This is the first time I've ever been able to do any kind of a job that I didn't do it backwards first. Your step by step instructions were so helpful. I'm in FL and I was able to call my Dad in MD and tell him, "I did it by myself!" (well, with a lot of help from a really great youtube video!)
You are most welcome. Your reply and many, many more like it make this video one of my favourite efforts on RUclips. I never know how any video I do is going to go over and it usually surprises me when they do well. I love the responses I get to this video. Thank you very much. All the best.
I just watched this video & fixed our toilet 🚽 watching step by step.
Thank you 😊 great how to video 👍🏻
I am sooo glad I found your video online. Kudos....you are a good TEACHER ...very patient and nice to listen to. I am ready to start my project.
Thank you very much for watching and the kind comments. Glad I could help.
THANK YOU! Parts of the instructions that came with the kit made no sense (at least to me). After watching your video I was able to fix my toilet!
I was a first timer for this project, Did it perfectly because of your clear, specified instructions, appreciated your time spent on this project video! Keep the great D.I.Y. videos coming :) Thanks a lot...sir!
+preety1013 You are most welcome. I will keep them coming as the to do list is long. LOL. Thank you for watching and the kind comments.
Very clear step-by-step instructions. I've subscribed. Thanks Richard.
Perfect tutorial for a first time installer. Was so simple to follow and it works likes a dream!
You are most welcome. I am very glad I could help you. Thanks for watching.
Mr Bill G, I just installed this following your steps exactly. This made my job easy and smooth! Thank you very much!
You are most welcome. Thank you for commenting and the kind words. All the best.
I got this same kit but I have been afraid to do this because I'm a 60 year old lady with bad shoulders and I will be doing it by myself. But after watching your video ( VERY clear and well done by the way) I'm going to give this a go. I only have one bathroom so I will have to remember to be very careful with that tank. Thanks for your excellent video and for demonstrating that it IS do-able :)
You are most welcome. Thank you very much for commenting, watching and the kind words. All the best.
Richard, like most of us who are DIY’ers. You made our tasks easier with this video. Thanks mate!
I think my favorite thing about this video is the problem you had with the chain under the bottom seal. I'm sure that a lot of people have the same problem, but you calmly showed us how to solve it. Thank you.
You are most welcome. I was actually happy that it happened to me so I could show it to my viewers too. Thank you for watching, commenting and the kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
@@richardlloydusa I was confused about the washers and nuts on the tank bolts, so I went to a plumbing supply store. I bought a tank bolt kit from them and asked them about the washers. They said that there should be a rubber washer inside the tank and outside. One metal washer should go over the outside rubber washer and one of the nuts should be used to tighten it. The other washer and nut should be used to hold the tank to the bowl. This allows the torque on the tank sealing washers to be different from the torque used to level the tank. My tank was installed the same way you show yours, but the attachment bolts had been torqued so much to make a seal that the inside rubber washer was heavily deformed and the metal washers holding the tank to the bowl were bent into dome shapes. I suspect this was done by the contractor because it saves money.
A little too much force. Thank you for watching and commenting. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Awesome video Richard! Excellent instructions. My wife was after me for about 6 months to fix our running toilet. Tried using an adhesive ring under the flapper, no go. Turned out to be the fill valve being cracked at the bottom as well. That kit you suggested did the trick! Thank you. Happy wife happy life!
You are most welcome. Thank you for watching, commenting and the kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.

I need to do this for my 78 yr old StepMom tomorrow in a guest bath. I am not mechanical at all but you gave me confidence I can do this from watching your entire video. Good job Richard, very detailed, straight forward and not an intimidating job. Thank you
You are welcome. Thanks for watching and kind words.
Thanks. We were lost and couldn't have done it without you. Love it when the box says "Easy Installation".
+LaDean Towers You are most welcome. Thank you for watching.
This is a great video it help me to complete the installation of the all in one toilet repair kit . I am 75 years old woman. Your instructions are very clear. Thank you.
You are most welcome. Thank you for watching and the kind words. I appreciate it. Glad I could help you. All the best.
I really enjoyed watching your instructional video. I learn more from watching than reading although I will check with the written instructions during my replacement. Now I don't feel so overwhelmed doing this repair. Good job!
+John Ambrose Thank you very much. Take your time and you will do just fine.
Thanks a ton. People like you make it easy for people to fix things themselves.
You are most welcome. Thanks for watching and the kind comment. All the best.
I agree with Dave below. I'm glad you left any minor mistakes in. Grandma here was dreading this project. You took the stress out of it. Thank You
You're most welcome. I'm glad and very happy to know that I could help you. Thank you so much for watching, commenting and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Great video. Really helped me get it done right. Instruction paper can't show all the little and important things showed in your video. Thanks again.
You are welcome. I am glad I could help you with this video. This thing works so well that when I use the other two toilets in my house that don't have this hardware in them I really notice it. So now I am going to have to do the repair on them as well. For price you really can't beat it. Thanks for watching and commenting.
thanks Richard from Australian who just happened to be in need of some help as I had to replace the water inlet valve also just happens that its the same model, your step by step instruction was great. thanks again 😃
You are most welcome. Thank you for watching, commenting and the kind words. All the best.
Richard, just to let you know I completed this project by watching your video. So thanks again and keep up the good wirk.
You are most welcome. Thanks
Thank you so much for this video! Your instructions were great! I was able to successfully install the kit and everything works. Big achievement for me :)
I found this video very helpful. Thank you for making it. We didn't have the money to call a plumber and I have absolutely no experience with this stuff, but it worked! My toilet is running great. I have a Kohler toilet so it was a tiny bit different which wasn't as big of a deal as I thought it might be. Thanks again!
You are very welcome. I am glad I helped you fix it and save money at the same time. You have to love it when that happens :). Thanks for watching and kind comments.
Thank you!. I had to replace my Mothers tank with the exact kit and made it much easier watching you go though all steps and tips.
+Michael Salvador You are most welcome. Thanks for watching.

Richard - great job. Good tip on the chain hanging on the flapper and causing constant filling; has happened to me in past.
Thank you Richard. Instructional video was a big help. Saved me a lot of time and frustration. Thanks again
