Not to change the subject on these Fluidmasters, but is anyone else having trouble getting the fluidmaster gaskets on top.. Are they stocked good at the
box stores. Can't find them at my supply houses.

I've never had a reason to just buy a top needle valve gasket,I just change out entire thing

This may have been answered earlier. A very common complaint after the customer has installed and Fluidmaster ballcock. If the refill tube is not installed correctly with the included adapter, the refill tube will continuously siphon water from the tank into the overflow tube. This causes the B/C to come on every 10 minutes or so to replenish the lost water to the proper level. If you see the refill tube placed inside the overflow, Just look down the tube & you will see a trickle of water coming out of the refill tube. I carry extra refill tube adapters to correct this. It happens a lot
