Is it a big job to remove and replace the guts of a toilet tank?

This is an old, low toilet. Without replacing it I would like to know if I can remove the tank pieces. I have no knowledge of plumbing at all.

In order to flush the toilet you have to hold the handle down for the entire duration while the water "slowly" flushes the toilet.

The other aggrevation thing is the chain falls off the handle bar and always needs replacing otherwise it gets stuck under the rubber top at the bottom of the tank and then the tank top has to be removed.

Is this a big job, a costly job?



Answer
They sell a plastic wrap kit set at the hardware stores with all the pieces. There is one tricky part. Two bolts hold that tank onto the seat. The nuts are on the underside, you need a "deep well" socket to get those off. The tank comes off. Big beveled rubber grommet washer connects the flush valve to the hole in the sink. Take that off and you unscrew the giant plastic nut. Replace the parts. Now for the tricky part. You have to tighten the nuts back to put enough pressure on the giant rubber grommet. If you tighten one side two much, you can crack the porcelean tank. So, tighten alternating from nut on one side then the other.

Do a google

lots of vids on the various DIY how tos.

Not hard. Good luck.

How do you change the wheels on a Original hybrid 35 longboard?

im new to longboarding but the wheels i got with the board are getting chunked so i would like to get some new wheels but im not sure that if i bought them over the internet that i would know how to change them from my board so if you could explain it to me thhat would be great thanks and if you have any recomendations on what wheels to get id apreciate it thanks


Answer
okay no problem its pretty simple. Take off all the bolts keeping the wheels on, there will be 4. Then take out the bearings in the wheels by using the axles of your trucks to pry them out. This might sound confusing so it might help to look this part up on youtube. Its like you put the wheel back on halfway then turn it sideways and you'll feel the pressure pulling the bearing out.


Once you have all the bearings out, get your new wheels ready to be set up. Put a loose bearing on your axle, then press the wheel on top of it and it will be put in cleanly. Repeat this for all the bearings. Then put your wheels on and tighten them back down with the 4 bolts and you're good to go.

If you have speed rings, use them. They are little washers that help your wheels run smoother by reducing friction. One goes before your put the wheel on, and one after. So 2 per axle. Tighten your wheels enough so there is little to no slop but not too much so as to inhibit them from spinning freely. Good luck!

I also reccomend either purple or orange orangatang 4presidents. great wheels I have both
