Dan, is the flow from the pet cock as steady as it looks on the pic ?

Yes mate, I'm guessing that's flowing more than it should. But like shaun said there's a constant drip into the :nono: as well

If its dripping steadily from the petcock into the cistern, and flushing periodically, its working exactly as designed.

If its dripping steadily from the urinal spreaders, then its the auto-syphon thats gone.

If its dripping from anywhere else - somethings leaking!

Start again ...... If the pet cock is letting a small steady flow of water into the cistern and the auto syphon is at its flush level , it will leak the same amount back into the urinal . Or have I had toooooo much jack daniels lol.

Put a new pet cock on or iso valve in the morning it wont do any harm to pull out the syphon out and clean it and give it a go.

Hopefully nobody has chucked anything in the cistern .

Did find a suspicious looking bag on top of it, definitely won't be putting my hands in without looking...
