    Line Valve Leaks.
    I have a push/pull style water valve to the toilet.
    The hose at the valve to the tank is leaking at the valve, this is all plastic. How do I replace this part or fix the leak?

    If the leak is where hose attaches, you may have a bad seal or it has not been tightened enough. Holding the valve with one tool, tightened the nut on hose about a quarter turn.
