I have a Wirquin Jolly flush, and the flush button doesn't work, it sometimes gets stuck, which I think is due to too much water being in the tank, putting too much preassure on the cheap plastic mechanism with lifts the (red) plunger - see pictures below.
The top picture is the tank after a flush, which stops filling just below the lifting (flush) mechanism. If I flush when the water is at this level it works fine. However, if the flush is not used for a few hours or overnight (see bottom picture), the tank very slowly fills up further, stops at the top of the red plunger (6 litre). When the water level is this high, the flush button doesn't work, it seems stuck, due to the extra weight of the water on top of the lifting mechanism.
I can't afford to replace with a better system, so trying to fix it. Is there a way to keep the water level at the same height after a flush (guessing around 4 litre), so no extra water feeds into the tank?
