Will buying this Lever correct the ability to flush properly?

If you have a kohler Rialto toilet then this lever works perfect. That's the toilet I got it for. It's weighted and designed to lift the flapper and then right itself again for 1 touch flushing.

It did in my case. In fact, that is why I purchased it after multiple attempts at Lowe's/Home Depot with supposedly universal parts.

Just purchasing an item will not solve your problem. In order for me to answer your question I need to know a bit more about the flush issue.

It did for us but we did have to adjust the chain that connects the flush lever to the flapper a couple if times to get it right. Hope that helps!

Hello when I bought the bidet I never had any specific model in mind, it works on all models , because it has adjustments right or left, and back to front.

If even if it does fit I would change the toilet out. We had the original 3 for 8 years. They leaked. We replaced and those 3whic only lasted 2 years. The design has a very high rate of failure for the 503 series. Last week we changed those out for an Advantage Gerber model and avoid another flood. Their customer service is virtually non-existentant. Lots of lawsuits againts the 503 series!

Yes it will work if the standard toilet has a big enough notch in the back of the toilet. If it does not he can cut a deep enough notch and install the auto flush kit. This kit will work with a flapper, a round flapper as long as it has a spot to to lift the flap. I have it installed on all four of my toilets and they work like a champ.

I think it will just repair the toilet. Holding the flush lever down until the bowl empties seems to help, though.

I think its just designed to save water and it does. I get good flushes on the no. 1 flush. I even have flushed solid waste at times on the no. 1 flush. I think its OK as far as I'm concerned. I think to do better you'd have to invest on a whole new commode.

So long as you have ordered the correct unit for your particular toilet, the kit is all-inclusive. Works like a charm, just make sure that you're not trying to "convert" a gravity flush to a pressure flush. <g>

You have not gone wrong. The toilet is a BAD DESIGN. I fought a loosing battle for 12 years, trying to stop the leaking and trying to clear the swirling water of the sewage. I hope you have more luck getting it to work than I had.

No, the FlushSaver is not compatible with standard flush handles. Standard flush handles have a rod that sits inside the tank and rotates upward to lift the flapper valve. The FlushSaver flush handle snaps into a cable pushrod mechanism. I believe that the product description of "FlushSaver STANDARD FLUSH HANDLE Dual-Flush Deluxe DIY Conversion Kit" just implies that it looks like a standard flush handle. It certainly can't accept a standard flush handle.

Yes -- but it will be way way easier if you do it BEFORE you intall the toilet. The directions that come with it will tell you how. I have a different seat on mine.

The one I bought is 3 inches wide which wouldn't work w/my toilet which had only a 2 inch wide flush pipe. I'm no plumber, but I would say measure your flush pipe width and then watch a bunch of youtube videos about replacing flapper valves.

I'm not sure which side you are considering left. If you standing and facing the toilet tank, the flush lever is on the left. Obviously everything depends on where the fill-tower is inside the tank. I hope this helps.

if you've installed toilets before, not difficult. Toto has full instructions: http://assets.totousa.com/product-files/0GU031_DUAL_FLUSH_TOILET_IM.pdf

In my experience, it's hard NOT to get a complete--and very effective--flush whenever you push the lever. This thing is FAST. It's hard to explain the difference in the way it works, but there's nothing gradual about the way it flushes, and I still can't believe that it takes less than 1.6 gallons to flush everything down.

Possibly. However, before replacing the flush valve assembly, try tightening the existing one you have about a 1/4 turn and see if the leaking persists. Test the flushing after each 1/4 turn of tightening. If the leak stops and the toilet still flushes fine, no need to replace the valve.

All I can tell you is that it is a well built tool. It is much better then the flimsy type sold for less money. It has enough reach to navigate through toilet and unstop a regular log jam but I do try to break it up with a small stick before flushing toilet. I feel it is a good tool to have just in case. My suggestion to you is to make the investment and try it even if toilet is flushing now. You might fish up something that is just hanging in there causing some of your problems. I can not tell you it will fix your problem but I can say it works for me on my 1976 Kohler toilet. Buy it and try it you never know what you will catch or release. If you do get a log jam to unclog get yourself a small stick around 1"X1"X2'. Have a bucket ready to pour water into toilet and try to flush. If you are lucky it will flush without having to use tool. If you are not lucky you will need toilet auger to clear the obstruction and bucket to carry out tool to clean outside of house. I use the water hose to clean off tool after using it to release logs. Believe me high pressure water makes cleanup easier. Good luck with your clogs hope my comments were helpful.

Yes it does, that's what it is designed for. I woudn't flush anything that you would not normalyflush down a toilet. This is the second one that I have installed I have one in the house I live in now and am building a new house and have installed it there also.
