We recently had a new ballcock and siphon fitted in our toilet. It worked fine for a while but now, when you flush the toilet, it will keep on flushing. I had a look inside and noticed that, when flushed, the ballcock does not move until all the water has gone and then it suddenly drops to the bottom of the cistern and on its way back up, gets caught on a plastic bit that sticks out from the side of the siphon. The water carries on filling over the ballcock and eventually has to flush over and over. Am I right in thinking that the plastic bit on the side of the siphon is there to stop the ballcock arm from dropping too far down? I initially thought it was a design fault but I think it might be there for a reason.
Anyway, does anyone know how I can fix this?
Cheers.
