I am unsure why my toilet is STILL running. Here are the symptoms. After flushing it works fine, it stops perfectly. After about 8 hours or so it starts to run again.
First I replaced the flapper, piece of cake, I thought it worked but 12 hours later, it was running again.
I then replaced the entire inlet valve and stem, and figured I was done. Nope, 12 hours later it was running again.
Then I figured there was a leak around the flapper seat or the overflow pipe. And I replaced all of that. 12 hours later, running again.
Now there is NOTHING that hasn’t been replaced inside that toilet, what can it be?
Any suggestions? Tonight I’m going to add a colored dye to the water to see if it is leaking anywhere, but I’m a bit skeptical…
