Shack has a running toilet and the fix couldn’t be any easier. It sounds like his toilet tank has too much water in it…so, how does this get fixed?
Most toilets have a float on the fill valve. This float controls the water level in the toilet tank. If you adjust the float you’ll adjust the water level, which should be about 3/4” to 1” below the overflow pipe in the center of the tank.
I’ve got a really good video tutorial on this over on Home Repair Tutor
