Hi guys,

Last week I had to replace the guts inside the tank. The rubber flap at the 
tank base, the chain and lever attached to the exterior flush handle, etc. 
With all new guts in the tank, when I flush, if I just push down the lever 
and let go instantly, the toilet starts to flush, then stops. If I  hold 
down the lever for three to five seconds, then it works fine. I tried 
shortening the chain linking lever to flapper, hasn't helped. Leaving a 
little more play in the chain. Hasn't helped. It used to be just push the 
lever, toilet flushed fine, but now I can't figure out what might be 
adjustable that I could tinker with to get it to flush with just the old 
press and let go action. Any suggestions? I believe I opened the valve out 
of the wall to the tank right back to where it used to be, and it seems the 
tank is just as full as it always was, so it is just the issue of needing to 
hold down the handle that is bugging me. Any suggestions would be greatly 
appreciated.

Best,
Joe Monks
