How are we all doing? Another thread looking for some help please.

I am going to replace some toilet guts for my gf's good friend. I have never done this job before but it looks extremely simple... ( I am pretty mechanically inclined as well)

With that said, is there any special notes I should have or are the YouTube videos pretty much it?

I get nervous when it is a first time job and I am doing it on someone else equipment.

Toilets tend to be simple. Have a few extra towels on hand, sometimes a hack saw is the easy way to get the old stuff out (for sure if it was metal) and be careful not to overtighten when you are putting it back together.

That is exactly what I was looking at. There is currently the black float ball, which I am not a fan of.

Looks pretty straight forward.

Bucket under the feed line when you disconnect to catch any drips. Be sure to turn off the water at the feed line first.

Thanks all. Just making sure I had all my ducks in a row before jumping into it.

Make sure you check for upper deckers before sticking your hand in there.

It's not a hobby Mark, it's more like a curious interest.
