Thanks for the zip tie idea. I posted about the same problem with my new Toto and solved it by making a shim from a piece of 3/16" plastic tubing to keep the flapper from moving on the pivot; I...

Friend of mine said he had to fix an old Kohler toilet that leaked at the base, so he was going to change the wax seal. I said that I did not think you could get a leak at the flange unless water...

See how over-large the tank looks? That toilet does not have an 8-gallon tank and the tub is not giant nor is the vanity extra high. That bowl is at least 5" lower than standard and smaller in...

Not since kindergarten, maybe.

I found my Toto toilet at National Builders Supply, Austell GA, delivered to my door in SoCal in 5 days for $100 less than at a local discount plumbing supply. They actually packed the original...

"Besides, I enjoy living dangerously "

Still, I wouldn't flush before getting up if I were you. :)

Aw c'mon now. McGuyver woulda used bamboo and a spine from a pufferfish. :)

Well, I can report success costing less than 1 cent.

As the flush lever rotated toward the front of the tank, dragging the flapper off line, I could see that the flapper's attachment ears had lots...

Now I see what you mean. The factory config is actually very close to directly over the flapper. In testing, I would pull the chain straight up by hand and the flapper stayed centered and didn't...

PVA primer is perfectly fine for drywall. In fact drywall is the only substrate for which PVA is suitable.

How can I bend the rod to make it pull directly upward? The rod rotates 90º so that the "L" bend at the end moves the chain upward, but also toward the front of the tank.

If I bend the rod at...

Thanks for the follow up. I lowered the water level to just touching the flapper and it did not drop below the rim of the flush valve orifice in 4 hours, so it would appear that flush valve rim or...

[QUOTE=wjcandee;354716]There shouldn't be any upward tension on the flapper from the weight (that thing on the chain should be a weight, not a float). You should have at least one link of chain...

Two-week old Toto Promenade 1.28

Wife complained of "water running" sound. Sure enough I found the fill valve allowing a small amount of water to flow because it apparently couldn't quite close. ...

[QUOTE=wjcandee;352433]And as has been mentioned, you might as well get the 1.28. If you don't like the flush, you can swap the flapper for the Korky "Fits Toto" Red flapper and you will have the...

Toto Promenade is the only high version with round bowl, so it will fit in the same tight space as the poor-flushing Wellworth it will replace. So the only choice left is 1.28 gpf or 1.6 gpf?
...

I too needed to find a short toilet. Todd Williamson at Toto told me that the shortest toilet Toto makes is Promenade round bowl (CST423). It comes in 1.28 gpf or 1.6 gpf versions and SanaGloss is...

Thanks for the quick response.
And your opinion about Cimarron non-clogging compared to Toto?

Oops, cancel this. I just found post #92

Thanks for putting up all of this information.

I see the good reports about Toto UltramaxII and Drake II, but both of them are longer than we would like. We have to replace a Kohler Wellworth...
