Hi,
Is it possible to DIY the way the toilet lever flushes? or will we have to buy a new toilet and replace?
The toilet is a discontinued model, a universal rundle #4007. I replaced the tank lever with a Korky 6071BP Strongarm Tank Lever Faucet Style in Brushed Nickel-Universal to Fit Front Angled Side Left and Right Mount toilets but the lever still needs to be held upward to flush.
We have a special needs son that will begin potty training soon and it would be too difficult for him to have to hold the lever up. I would like it, if he could just push the lever down like on most toilets to flush.
I have attached images of the toilet lever and the model diagram.
Perhaps it's just how this toilet is? Please share your advice and experience if it is possible to reverse the direction of the toilet handle?
