Hi,
I've got a slow leak around the wax seal in my toilet. I tried replacing the seal but the leak persists. One of the things I noticed is that the leak happens regardless of whether we flush the toilet or not. Does this suggest a cracked bowl?
As another piece of information, the flange is quite high leaving a very small gap for the wax seal. I don't think it's touching but it may be very close. My current plan is to remove the toilet and examine very closely for small hairline cracks. If I don't find any, I was going to try a wax seal without the plastic collar.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks,
Mark
