Excellent video! I can see the problem now - the actuator on my unit is no longer attached to anything. It just lays there loose and needs to be replaced. You explained everything so clearly and provided excellent video shots of everything. Thank you.

$47.17 including Florida sales tax on Amazon. Now I find out why my water bill has been so high lately. The squeaking noise as it filled to the top but not completely had me investigating. Tim, you're the best! Keep it up! Homeboy here in Tampa Town.

A little grease on the cartridge threads is a great tip. This made it a lot easier to turn the cartridge and to calibrate it correctly. This was the second video I watched, which resulted in complete success, aafter failing with the another video. I did drop that "don't lose" screw in the tank (before I saw your video), but fortunately was able to retrieve it with a grabber tool. Thanks for a very helpful video.

You don't have to loosen the other clip as the rod slides out, and you don't have to take the screw all the way out because once loosened, you can push the clip out of the way. That way, you won't lose them

I had an American Standard with this POS system in a house I built in 96. Every couple of years the cart. went. It would make some fun noises on it's own in the middle of the night. Screeching like. The main issue was the linkage Am. St. used. It all rusted out even though there shouldn't be water in the tank. They wanted $300 for new linkage and clips. I ended up making my own out of car door linkage rods and the clips that hold them in. I also drilled and wired them. The last year I was in that house the pressure vessel decided to end it's life. I swore mostly because of the linkage and no warranty on it I would never give a dime to American standard again. Moen, Kohler, and Toto for me.

After six years this September 2023, I am ordering a new Flushmate 504 unit to replace this leaky one. All attempts at repairing failed. It started off with seeing about a quarter inch of water in the tank and a drip coming from the supply valve area. What got me to looking was a loud squeal all night after the last flush I did, that I can only assume was the slow intake of water to replace what was leaking out of the unit. This morning I took the tank off the toilet and took the 504 out of the tank. I then cut the hose from the supply valve and put it back with a radiator clamp. I decided to test the unit before bolting the tank and everything back together., Glad I did as now when I turned the water on the upper valve is spewing water out onto the floor. Checking for tightness, duck valve good, I gave up. As you cannot find a lower supply valve for sale on Amazon or the manufacturer's website, my only option was to order a complete new unit. Original cost of toilet with Flushmate was $392. New unit on Amazon is $169. Annual cost is around $93. What sucks is I had bought two of Flushmate toilets back in the late 80's I think it was from Home Depot when they first came out for the consumer. I sold that house and the new owners are enjoying them and I never had a problem one with either of them. I guess quality is getting worse like everything else, right? Just pay the price and go onward.
