Tank does not stop filling

[droo09]

Hello,

Quite simply, my toilet tank won't stop filling with water and overflows. I looked online for awhile couldn't find information on my particular flushing assembly. I believe it is a really old style system that does not use a float ball. Any suggestions and help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I don't know what you have, but it could be as simple as replacing the flapper at the bottom of the tank. My personal opinion is to replace your entire contents inside your tank with a Fluidmaster 400a and a new flapper. Total cost is about $10.00, and found at any big box hardware store.

You need a fill valve as the other member stated

Try adjusting the water valve on your toilet then see if it still continues to overflow...

If the tank is filling to the overflow then replace the fill valve. If it just runs without filling the tank then replace the flapper.
