OK, newbie question here, I know but I have never had this problem before and I think i know what the problem is but just want to check with you all and determine the best fix.
The float in the water tank when lifted to it's highest postion does not prevent water from pouring in. The "flapper" is fine and stops the water flow in to the toilet bowl and the float is fine, it rises as the water in the tank rises but the water never stops coming in. I take it this is a valve of some sort which is not closing when the float reaches it's highest position? If so what's the fix? Do I replace the entire assembly? if so are they fairly generic so I can purchase a new assembly without the original part?
Thanks!
