Commode not holding water
This past week end the commode stopped holding water. I am far from a plumber but it seems to have a rubber seal that is not sealing. How hard is this to fix?????

Mine is a Sealand and it is really quite easy. Two piece toilet and the top is held to the bottom by what looks like an oversize hose clamp. Loosen the clamp and the top lifts off and exposes the ball and seal.
At about 3 yrs mine stopped holding water. Took it apart, cleaned the rubber seal and lubed it with Pam (per Sealand rep) and it then held fine. ....
Until this year 4 yrs later. This time cleaning did not help as rubber had hardened. Replaced the rubber seal and all is well again.
Less than an hour even when not in a hurry.
