Toilet leaking (still)

Our Encounter has the Thetford Aqua-Magic Style II, (model 42052).

I'll guess Forest River uses this toilet in many of it's products.

Last fall I saw a line of water around the base in front. Thinking it was the floor seal I ordered one with new bolts and installed it. Didn't use the rig again until this last weekend. Still have water at the base/floor. Got down on my back and took a close look around the side and watched as I operated the flush pedal. Sure enough water leaks out at the flush valve. A fast drip; don't know how I missed that the first time.

From Thetford I ordered a new floor gasket and a new flush valve; both are on their way now. Since the floor gasket is designed to reshape itself on installation I decided not to try to reuse it. Total cost including shipping was $22. I can live with that.
