Weak Kohler Toilet Flush-EASY FIX!...How to Replace a Flapper With Float

What happens here

Unpack the new Kohler Genuine Part GP85160 flapper. Unlike the old hard plastic flapper, this new design is made of a softer material and attaches by simply hooking onto the small plastic tongues on the flush valve. Position the new flapper over the flush valve, aligning the holes in the flapper's arms with the tongues. Gently push down until the flapper is securely hooked onto both sides. Ensure the flapper sits flat against the drain opening and can pivot freely.

Goal: Securely attach the new genuine Kohler flapper to the toilet's flush valve.

Let's go ahead and just pop that out of the package These old school toilets man, they're pretty cool They're they're really nice and if the porcelain lost like hey this classic look man It never goes out of date in my opinion like they're pretty cool and so this style of flapper is not that hard plastic Like look you can see hard plastic. It's got that little clip. This one doesn't have that. This is actually just going to go over the little tongs And a lot simpler to install just take this and set it aside right there Flip this around get it to where you want it and Then it's just a matter of hooking it on that little tongue. So you just do the same thing over here Hook hook and it's on and it's hooked up So now it's gonna work And now we're gonna probably have to clip a little bit of this chain off
