Dolphinite no longer here Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 My old (original) plastic toilet leaks water into the bowl after flushing. Its not much of a flow but its enough that the pump cycles on and off every 5 or 6 seconds. Is there a seal somewhere that can be replaced? Do I have to remove the toilet to replace this seal? I think the toilet is a Thetford. It has a side flush handle, not the foot-operated handle and it came stock in my '85 Dolphin 20-footer.

Dolphinite no longer here Posted May 18, 2012 Author Share Posted May 18, 2012 is this the turd cutter seal leaking? Yup, that's the one and I just found the info on the make. Its not a Thetford, its a Valterra Products toilet. Looks like the ball valve needs replacing. Is this a job for "Joe The Plumber" or can I do it?
