Why does my toilet flush multiple times

Hi TW
Is the toilet flushing multiple times or is the toilet flushing/turning on by itself?
If the toilet is flushing by itself once in awhile then most likely the toilet FLAPPER needs to be replaced. To test this, place 10-15 drops of food coloring in the toilet TANK and let the toilet sit still for 1/2 hour. If the colored water shows up in the toilet BOWL then you have confirmed that the flapper needs replacement, OK?
Purchase an exact match for the flapper if possible... universal fit flappers fail more often than they succeed!
Back to you...
