My Kohler toilet obviously has a leak. I have replaced the flapper with an original part. I have read through the thread and tried the various things. Yes the dye leaks into the toilet bowl. I also tried the o rings that someone mentioned to hold the flapper more securely. If I shut off the water to the tank it will eventually empty itself. It's not like I can see it rushing into the toilet bowl or anything. If I apply a little pressure to the flapper it seems as if it isn't leaking. I'm hoping someone can help. My dad always taught me to be independent and try to fix things myself. Of course he helped, he couldn't resist. He's gone now and I miss his wonderful words of wisdom and fix-it demonstrations.
