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?????

- get a old tooth brush,some real soapy mixed water ,and clean the seal have some one hold the gate open, after your done, put some water in the bowl see if it holds water. you don,t need a plumber just gotta be willing to get a little dirty. nice long pair rubber gloves is a good idea.
- What brand toilet? Mine started doing that yesterday. New gasket kit on order. Five minute fix with parts.
- Try using white vinegar to clean the bowl. Or hot water to "soften" the rubber seal and get it working again. If these tricks don't work, take it in for service as this is a job I don't recommend doing at home. ;)
