This was really helpful mate and I was able to improvise and fix my flusher ! Cheers much appreciated

British banter , you just can’t beat it. I we had such a thing here in New Brunswick

Awesome. My cistern was overflowing with water for days onto the roof of my garage. No idea of what to do...until I saw this clip. Managed to locate where on the water pipe I needed a screwdriver to stop the water supply. I finally stopped the water! Phew!!😅 Thank you so much. You literally saved a life, as times are tough, and money is in very short supply!!

Thanks for this, helped me do my toilet today myself without paying for a plumber, and drawing around acetate for template worked a treat to get flush working, thanks :)

Thanks for this. I fixed my flush. Made a new membrane out of a dog food bag. Now it flushes like brand new. Saved myself a fortune calling out a plumber. Happy days. Feeling smug😉

No comment as to the type of replacement. .. Dudley Turbo 88 ? And (assuming it is ) how you can replace the washer on that WITHOUT taking off the main body.

Thanks for the vid, replacing mine but they range from 7 inches to 10 inches. How do I know which to choose 😭

How did you get that thing in the middle off after the large nut as mine is glued with something stronger than god

What was the items bought to do this job??

I have no screw to shut water off and if close the main cold water supply all the cold taps has no water supply but all the flush tanks water only reduces and does not fully closes any solution to that ??

why did you take out the ball valve arm??

With this type you just unclipped yellow plug .. I did to change syphon from down pipe . Got new syphon ..and fitted back with the clip . But still didn't work properly . The handle lever was too short ( should pull straight up )and pulled plunger at an angle from the syphon ..this wore out washer znd damaged the down pipe .top .very slightly .the new syphon o ring allowed bit of air so stopped vacuum..yanking handle still. So put bit of margarine or silcone gel around top of syphon to down pipe and ..hey presto ..it worked ..!! Saved me from taking cistern off as it was enclosed behind tiling box section. If that helps

Very helpful video, so I hope you don't mind me pointing out that those aren't Mole grips that you're using: they're normally referred to as water pump pliers. 'Mole grips' was a trade name for a type of self-locking pliers.

Also if you have recently changed the flushing system in your toilet check that you do not have a double trap toilet. If you have one of these a conventional toilet flush will make it look like your toilet is blocked.

I guess you siliconed the siphon in because the bottom rubber washer seemed a bit rotten. Why not just replace the washer? When someone needs to replace that siphon, they'll have to force it from that silicone glue!

@MrSmid888

No need for silicon they self seal. I think because it’s a Dudley Turbo that when it fails again you can pull the yellow pin to remove the diaphragm, they just made it solid but you wouldn’t want to try to remove it if need be. 🤢✌🏻

Put something on the toilet seat to protect it from getting scratched by your tools. 😮😊

those who disliked I'd love to know why they did so? If you have the knowledge and confidence of how to do this procedure then why are you waching.🚾 Thanks for the info now I can go for a sh*t at last before I explode💥 😷

The name of the toilet is called TwyFord

Surely at 2:16 you shouldn't be able to pell the nut straight over the washer ? How is it going to tighten up on it ? Shouldn't there be a blue plastic 'stiff' backing washer that crushes the conical black seal as you tighten the nut ? Admittedly as you tighten the black washer it will crush and expand and is unlikely to slip through the nut but to be safe I'd have included the blue washer.

Bidet Toilet 🙄Powerful

If I didn’t have a wet vac, I would’ve siphoned the water of in the cistern instead of using a jug. Your “mole grips” are actually called water pump pliers.

You could have saved yourselves a LOT of work. By just undoing the nut which holds the ball valve and while you're at it changed the diaphragm rubber at the same time. Also where is your overflow pipe ??

Could've done without the double entendres. Aside from that it was ok. Very awkward way for fitting the new siphon there. Would have been easier to hook it on before lowering into place in my opinion rather than extra effort when all is locked in place. You lost me at 4:33.

@MrMeltedwellies hi so yeh got the job done was a right kerfuffle tbh the job overall was quite easy but heres what happened. I went and bought a new flusher the day before i started the work i didn't know there were different sizes never seen one in my 38 year life 🤣 so obviously take mine out realise the new one is too big my toilet unite isnt flat at the bottom ( square shaped) like most it drops down so the part where the flusher goes is a small area so while i was cleaning out the toilet my parter went to b an q for me i told her needs to be smaller than that anyway she somehow buys a bigger one 🤦‍♀️ so i go try a few shops couldnt find anything but eventually found one and jobs a good en works perfect now realistically not even a 30 minute job even for someone like me with absolutely zero experience. Took me about 4 hours with running around looking for one, what made it hard aswell what my toilet unit is about 8ft in the air was awkward to get to but its done now hopefully get another 20 years out of it or more. Thanks for the video 👍

Plumber replaced washer in my toilet and it still drips. He wants another £60 for labour and £70 for the innards to replace the existing one. Is that reasonable. I already paid £848 for jobs including fixing the toilet.

@@MrMeltedwellies Thanks for confirming what I suspected. They work on recommendations and because of that I booked them without a quote. All they did to fix the toilet first time was a washer change. Other jobs were shower unit replaced, tap in kit hen replaced, hot water tap in bathroom innards replaced and reattach a pip in my sink that kept coming loose. Labour for that was 4 hours at £70 per hour plus VAT.

They’re not mole grips 😂

I’m here from the lobster video. I just wanted to let you know you are suuuuuper wrong. You have to dispatch them first because of the size of them.
