Message: [QUOTE="Jaybird, post: 442256, member: 22283"] Lou, congrats on the fixed crapporama. Now...as Jeff stated, wax rings are the next pain the...well you know where the pain is. Most toilets are installed with a wax ring that is nothing but wax...it WILL leak eventually. I suggest you go to an Ace hardware and buy a wax ring that has a nylon insert in it(about $3.00) Don't get a pure wax one. Like Corey stated, if it don't leak, don't fix it...BUT you want to have that wax ring handy becasue one day...when you least expect it...it WILL leak. I was lucky last time and caught ours just as the leak started, but if you have the worst luck, the floor will be damaged before you notice the leak...not a good thing. And btw....when a wax ring leaks, you cannot fix the old one...you can try, but you will be conducting an exercise in futility. :) [/QUOTE]
