tank to toilet gasket: workaround?
#1
I've been having trouble this year with the tank-to-toilet gasket on my Mansfield toilet. At first I had a lot of trouble finding one the right size, then the new one leaked. In April I thought I finally had it tightened enough to stay dry, but this morning I discovered it had been leaking again. Since I live in a highrise, this is a serious problem for the people downstairs. Apparently the unit two floors down has paint damage.

Just press-fitting a ceramic tank onto a sponge rubber gasket seems like such a 19th century way to handle gallons and gallons of water, and I started pondering if there might be anything I could do that would be more leakproof while still getting water from tank to bowl.
