I'm hoping someone can help with this (I'm sure simple) issue. Even though I do visit this site on occasion and bought a Toto Drake several years ago after learning about them here., I've never really had the need to search for an answer to a problem until now. So I just registered so I could ask for help.
Our Drake was having the problem with water continuing to run for a long time after flushing, and after reading of similar problems, I decided to splurge and buy a new fill valve. Unfortunately, our local Lowes had only the generic Korky 528, so I bought that thinking it would be okay. Well, it flushes fine, but as others have discovered, the bowl doesn't fill as high as it should. I couldn't find a 528T anywhere and rather than buying online and waiting (and paying extra) for having one shipped, I remembered there is a plumbing supply place nearby who deals with Toto. I called them and picked up a new Toto fill valve this morning. That's when I noticed that it looks different than the Korky. I was told that Toto has pretty much replaced all their old valves with new versions and the only difference is whether you have a one-piece or two-piece model. For our Drake he sold me this new TSU24A.
I'm sure it should be simple enough to install, but I'm the type who likes to be sure before diving in. I can't find any instructions for this thing anywhere. It's different looking enough from the Korky that it has me wondering about how to adjust the height and lock it in place, etc. Does anyone know of any instructions online so I don't mess up? or should I just return this and buy a Korky 528T online?
Thanks.
