I bought my second Toto Drake II to install. The first one has been great. The second one has a slow but persistent leak from the tank. After taking the tank off and putting it back on 3 or 4 times with no luck, I propped it up on some step stools and filled it up with water. There's a slow leak where the plastic meets the porcelain by the large plastic nut around the flush opening. Before my last attempt to install the tank on the bowl, I tried to tighten this same nut, which made the leak slower, but didn't eliminate it. However, it already seemed quite snug, so I don't think I can make it any tighter without breaking something.
Am I right that the large gasket that goes over the nut is not for stopping leakage between the valve assembly and tank, but only for sealing the connection between the tank and toilet? I.e., am I right in thinking that the store should give me a replacement for this brand new tank?
Thanks a bunch!
