Hi everyone,
I've got a 1982 Kilgore, and the handle bit the dust. We tried 2 handles (the one I am showing in the video we bought from Home Depot in the BAD video - I tried another from a local company called "Homeowners Plumbing Supply" - it was even worse for play and stuck in the down position when you flushed), so I put the original POS one back in...

Here are 2 Videos:
BAD one:
(ALOT of movement, up/down and sideways - I have tightened the nut the most I can plus everything else I can think of)

OK one:
(on same model Kilgore in Master Bath (seems to be using a Plastic Washer, etc. instead of metal - very little movement) - this is perfectly fine for us.

Can anyone help find a decent flush lever that isn't a POS and will not have back and forth play like crazy?
It seems like everyone is selling these POS ones now...
Thanks!
Chris
