Hello,
I am wondering if a defective lever nut can cause a toilet bowl to overflow?
I thought toilet bowls only overflowed if there was a clog in the toilet bowl, but my friend is telling me that the lever nut in my toilet is broken and causing the flapper to be open and the fill valve to flow water constantly.
But, even if the lever nut is defective, wouldn't the water just keep flowing but not overflood unless there was a clog in the bowl or something?
I know having a flooding toilet is bad, but I just want to prove my friend wrong.
