I was hoping to write a nice post on how I fixed our toilet here at home all by myself. However, after a days work and ponderings, I still dont have it fixed! I know that the Flapper needed to be replaced, so we went to Home Depot to get another one, installed it, fixed the bubble thingy in the tank, but now the Flapper will not stay open when if flushes. We have to hold down the lever till all the water swishes around, then let go. What I figure, is the flapper is too heavy for the handle to hold up. So I need to figure our if I need to go get a differernt Flapper, or a new handle. I did find out the Toilet was made in 1987, so it might need more work than I think!
