RE: Have To Hold Down The Handle To Flush Post By DL (Guest Post) (09/22/2005) Any one have any other ideas! RE: Have To Hold Down The Handle To Flush Post By (Guest Post) (09/16/2005) I'll try that but it's going down as soon as i let go off the handle, what keeps the flaper up as the watter runs down the drain? Thanks for everyones help RE: Have To Hold Down The Handle To Flush Post By SAndy from MN (Guest Post) (09/16/2005) I was given this tip by my Rotor Rooter Man. Since they started making the new low flo toilets, it seemd that there isnt enough water to get everything down. If you look at the flapper, you will find a small hole in it. This hole allows air bubbles to go through the flapper and makes it go down faster, therefore only letting a small amount of water out until it starts to refill the tank. In the old ones it would take awhile for the flap to go down because of the resistance it caused...ta..da...more water swooshing down ! He said to use hot glue and plug up that little hole. And you should get much better waterflow! I havent tried it but it seems that it would work!

You might need to screw the bulb up a bit but it sounds like the chain is the problem.
