A couple of years back I replaced a toilet with a Crane Economizer. I have not had any problems until now... Now when I flush I have to 'jiggle' at it for quite some while to get it to catch and re-pressurize. I have read manuals and what little I can find on the net.
This is what I have tried so far:
o check water pressure by seeing if you can fill a 1 gal jug in 30 seconds.
(water pressure fine... fills easily in 10-15 seconds)
o check inlet screen for clogging
(nothing there)
o remove cartridge and check the O rings.
(cartridge seems fine. However, this has been going on for a couple of weeks now and in desparation I bought a new cartridge... New and old seem to both have the same problem)
o adjust cartridge by screwing in 1/8 a turn at a time and waiting for it to catch.
(while this works fine for the first flush. Subsequent flushes are back to square one.)
Is there a trick to adjusting these things? Is there some hidden magic or some achillies heel that makes them run on?
