Just installed a new American Standard toilet. For the tank, it says tighten the nuts until the tank sits on the ceramic ribs on the stool.
Now Wife asks me to fix the wobbly tank in the other bathroom. Brand is Mancesa 1.6 gpf. Under the tank, there is about 3/8 inch space between the tank and stool. I started the to tighten the tank bolts, but saw that the stool does not have two ribs to tighten down to. Just one rib in front. I’m afraid to tighten the tank too far down lest it should break.
Anybody know how far down I can tighten the tank? Or should I put some sort of shims between the tank and the stool? Thanks for your thoughts.
