Last time I replaced the toilet, after I installed the new one, I caulked around the base but in the front I left a little hole. The thought was if it leaks from there it will be my clue that the wax ring seal is broken.
Well it happened. This afternoon I noticed my floor tile is a bit wet and it traces it to that toilet hole. If I mop up the water after half an hour I get more water leak from there.
Only thing is to take the toilet apart, removing the tank, mop up all the junk put in a new wax ring is a three hour project. I am now packing up for a business trip and no time to deal with this at the moment. Should I bite the bullet and do it, or can I "plug" up that hole and deal with it next weekend and tell eveyone to not flush this toilet in the mean time?
Thanks,
MC
