Had a toilet overflow today. Plunged it out, but the odd thing is:
Water fills in the back tank and the float rises, a bit beyond the water line level. However, the water continues to run, even though the float is high. By picking up the float just a slight amount, the water shuts off (?) Not sure why it doesn't shut off on its own, given it's high (slightly beyond water line level). Trying to avoid calling a plumber, if this might be a simple fix, but by the same token, I want it permanently resolved, having already cleaned the basement once from the overflow.
Thx in advance,
