Right, the loo doesnt flush. It's full of water up top. Any thoughts - would taking all the plastic bits to bits & cleaning out any chalky build up be the 1st thing to do?

assuming it has a syphon (handle?), not a flush valve (push button?), then it's likely to be the diaphragm washer in the syphon. Unless you have a three piece syphon this means you must remove the syphon (which may involve removal of the cistern from the pan...) to change 10 pence worth of plastic membrane.

Yes old style handle.. thanks for intel

Would it make more sense just to replace the syphon

Likewise.. DIY & me arent good buddies. Am alright at certain things, but seem to have a mental block & take on anything, deeply regretting it soon after.
