Our upstairs guestroom toilet sprang a small leak at one of the tank-to-bowl bolts. I bought a new set of bolts/washers and replaced them, but then the toilet started leaking a bit where the tank meets the bowl. I assumed I disturbed a very old gasket and now the thing needs to be replaced. The problem is, I can't seem to find one that fits. I've purchased "universal" 2" gaskets by Korky, Ace, and third from a company I can't remember at the moment. All were very similar, but none fit well. They're all too thick (or tall?). What happens is that the toilet bowl rests a good 1/4" off of the tank. No amount of tightening the underside wingnuts (outside of over-tightening to the point of cracking the porcelain) will bring it level, so it wobbles a lot.
I've picked up one more gasket from Home Depot today that looks to be closer to the right thickness, but I haven't tried it yet. If anyone has any suggestions for a good replacement gasket, I would really appreciate it.
I've attached a few pics of the gasket and the outlet(?) that it needs to connect to. I don't know the specific model of the toilet, but I can try to find it when I get home if that would help.
Any suggestions?
Thank you in advance!
