    Lift the tank lid and see the small fill tube coming out of the fill valve should be connected to the overflow tube, if not connect it to the overflow tube, Thanks.

    Yes it is a wall mount gravity flush. I tried a solution listed on this web, and looked into the sank. There is a screw on top of the fitting that connects the ball bare to the fill tube. I turned that as suggested and it apears that that only adjust tank level, it raise/lowers ball. Help

    John gave you the answer.
    Leave the screw alone and check the small tube that runs from the ballcock to the white overflow tube.
    Is it connected and is water coming out as the tank fills. Let me know, Tom
