The only way to stop this noise is to run some water from any source in the house e.g. taps, shower, Toilet etc. Any ideas? 5 Jun 2003 at 11:44 am #294548 Retired plbg1Participant Sounds like your toilet is leaking through the flapper and making ballcock run and viabrate.Put some egg dye in the tank and see if it leaks through.
