First of all hello.
can anyone help,what my problem is I had a new toilet put in and it started leaking and now I need a new fill valve, I no longer have contact with the person who installed it and have found it imposible to get the part it is a fill valve for toilet tank fitting (MG-8005)
think I could bulk buy 500 from china but only need 1
Thank You

You don't need to replace like for like, you can get fill valves from any DIY shops. Any chance of a photo? I would recommend getting one with a brass thread

No worries mate

That's one of the problems you get when you install imported goods these usely come from the DIY sheds, nearly always a problem when they go wrong ,same when they are being fitted you also find that a lot of them are not WRAS approved, OK to import them, OK to sell them, But not OK to install them , its to do with the materials they make the internal components with

Whenever I see that turquoise colour on a flushvalve or inlet valve it goes in the bin. A Hong Kong special is almost always identifiable with that colour plastic on it.
