 Replacing the Flush valve in an American Standard One Piece
Author: Probie Plumber (NY)

I am trying to replace the flush valve in a one piece 1.6gpf American Standard Lexington. The valve is secured by a single bolt and an arced nut. Replacing this is kicking me in the pants. Does anyone have any good ideas to secure this valve?

You are using original parts, and the flush valve wrench?

I might silicone the gasket to the valve and then the tank while installing.
