    Installed New Toilet, but no water
    After removing old toilet and installing new one, we turned the shut off valve back on, but there is no water. We do have water in the rest of the house, just not the new toilet. :confused: Any suggestions? Thanks!

    RacerGrl99 - I would check the filler flot for proper adjustment, then I would go to the riser9 Water line going to toilet from shut off valve, take and shut the shut off valve off ,take the riser line off from the bottom of the tank ( VERY SLOWLY AND EASY SLIGHTLY OPEN THE SHUT OFF VALVE (NOTE) - HAVE A BOWL OR A PAN TO CATCH THE WATER IN . IF you have good water pressure the you have trouble with the FILLER VALVE OR FLOT PART OF IT < IF you don't get water through the shut off valve then I would say it is bad or plugged up and neds to be replaced or cleaned out ( NOTE ) - Which ever way you do it , make sure water is off to the bath room, Good luck and GOD BLESS : F.B.E.

    Your Fill Valve inside your tank has dirt in it disallowing water to pass through. Close water, open up your fill valve, clean it, reinstall it and open water... This should do
