In reply to the discussion: Adventures in Toilet Repair [View all]ProfessorGAC
(64,413 posts)43. I Had A Double Flush Toilet In The Basement Half Bath
Spent nearly an hour trying to figure out how to get the flush mechanism out to change the flapper.
Turns out this cheap double flush toilet had the flush assembly, flapper and seal all integral. There is no replacing it.
I wasted an hour trying out how to fix something that can't be fixed.
Just bought a new low flow tank (single flush) and replaced the whole thing.
