I have a Kohler Wellworth Lite about 10-15 years old. I can't seem to stop the hissing sound. It sounds like its coming from the black plastic thing that goes up and down with the water. So far I've replace the Fluidmaster seal 242 as I read on the forum, but it still hisses. I put some food coloring in the tank and found the color in the bowl only near the small hole at the bottom of the bowl. What should I do to figure out why the hissing sound in the tank? It seems like it should be easy to fix and not need a plumber but I can't figure it out.
