Ralph,
Brother,It is so good to see your post and hopefully you are feeling better.
I read your instructions for Scott. One thing you should consider adding in the
future concerning your time estimate.

Hi Scott:

Your going to need a ball valve replacement package. If your commode is the
original and is the starlight or galaxy, the part number is #09868 and
there should be the needed replacement instructions.

But a couple of short cuts might help. 1. Turn off the water and look where
the water hooks up to the ball valve and un screw the nut holding the tube
to the valve. 2. Open the top lids and on your left as you face the front
of the unit you will see a circle plastic piece that is flush, with a small
knife blade pry it up and out but take care not to bang it up too much.

Now then there are 2 screws with nuts that hold the unit to the floor and
with a flash light peer down the hold of the cover you just removed, I use
a 3/8 drive 18 inch extension, a swivel and a deep well socket to loosen
and remove that nut. Then with a long stout screw driver, press down on the
foot pedal and use the long stout screwdriver to hold it down, now you can
see the second nut that must be removed. The commode is now up and out the
door to work on, oh, grab a beer on the way by the refer.

You are going to have to remove the flush mechanism to replace the ball
valve and should find some 8 or so screws around the base holding the flush
mech to the bowl, there are also 2 hoses held on by crimp hose clamps that
must be removed. Now the base is off and you can see where you have to go.
Whole job should take you about 1 hr 15 minutes or so from out to in and done.

Safe travels,
