Ordered a replacement syphon for an old toilet and it came without the washer which would sit between the syphon and the cistern (inside).
Merchants don't seem to sell these as spares. Can you buy a ploywasher that's big enough?
The old washer is shot.
 
There called syphon tail washers I believe, what size are you after, if its 1 1/2" then toolstation sell them for a quid
 
better off with the rubber ones rather than those hard poly one aswell

Thanks for the reply.

Been trying to find the rubber ones with no luck. Tried online, screwfix, all the big sheds but no luck.
I'll search toolstation now.
Didn't know they come in different sizes tbh. It's a dudley elite syphon. Assuming 1 1/2".
 
Should have been supplied with the syphon, give them a call & tell them to send you one.
 
You definitely need the rubber ones. Ceramics are uneven, sometimes badly.
I personally would buy another syphon as a spare & use the washer from it to get the job done, which would give you time to source another.
