          : Okay, Ive got this bathtub drain stopper, where you : push a metal tab UP to close the drain, and DOWN to : open the drain.: I have begged, I have pleaded, I have taken it apart and : sprayed it with WD-40, but I cant get the drain to : close.: Any suggestions???If you remove the two screws that hold the overflow plate, the linkage and plate can be removed and adjusted. Near where the linkage is attached to the lever will be a way to adjust how far the bucket will drop to close off water from the tub.Best Regards, Terry Love

                    I have the opposite problem. My stopper wont stay open.I cant find any obvious adjustment where you describe, although the picture you included seems to resemble my installation.Thanks in advance.: : : Okay, Ive got this bathtub drain stopper, where you : : push a metal tab UP to close the drain, and DOWN to : : open the drain.: : I have begged, I have pleaded, I have taken it apart and : : sprayed it with WD-40, but I cant get the drain to : : close.: : Any suggestions???: If you remove the two screws that hold the overflow plate, the linkage and plate can be removed and adjusted.
