hi

firstly look up troubleshooting jollyfill on google it shud give you guide of what may be the problem.
After a lot of tries and strenght we took the cover off the black thingy where the diaphraghm is( ok not a plumber so dont really no the proper names ) we just took it apart step by step as per the troubleshooting guide and gave the diaphraghm thing a rinse under the tap put it back together nice and tight and hey presto Fixed!!

hope this very rough guide helps !!:)

Thankx for reply! In a meantime I have managed to fix the problem! I didn't know where to start so I removed the whole Inlet part, open the part where the diaphram is, clean It and put all together. And it works! I have three loos with the same flushing mechanism and all had the same problem. But I managed to fix them all. Supprasingly, I have found very small pieces of junk where the Diaphram is (all Jollyfill). So i presume that this was the reason of that leak. But this is not good news for any Jollyfill user, because it can get block any time! Apparantly this mechanism can't deal with junk at all even the smallest one!

Thanks

Could not believe how much water we were loosing with this toilet. Biggest culprit in drained 500l of rain water harvesting system. I can not believe how much water can be wasted. Going to install a water level meter that I am busy building. Thanks so much your answer saved me.
