A hair dryer might heat it enough without damage that expansion would loosen it enough to remove.

   Have you tried WD40.I wouldn't heat it up as it will expand even more.I would use a longer handled  wrench for leverage and pull on it not to hard.I would put some WD40 on the nut and use two combo wrenches lock together at the opening and closing ends.That is one good trick I learned in automotive and works like charm.It is to bad SirGod could beam over to your place.I hope ypu get it off with out breaking anything.

Toilets?  TOILETS?  And to think I opened this thread expecting to see posts about ladies jeans and short skirts.

You guys are such a disappointment.

-S'Cipio , who is sure there are some things in life that DO need to be that damn tight......

You can use the torch from a distance, just don't apply the flame directly.  You could even heat a piece of sheet metal with the torch and let it radiate the heat at the plastic unit from a couple of inches.  Or borrow a hair dryer.

Well I finaly got the lock nut off put the new assembly in fixed another problem while I was at it, But now the Water supply tube is just a tad short and it not letting the assembly set right, as its leaking but not that bad looks like another couple of bucks to spend.

Is It the actual floating device in the tank? If so you can buy It for about 10 Bucks. If you need to replace the tank, Then It gets abit more complicated.

It's still manageable, But tiresome. What happened exactly, and I can help walk you through It step by step my friend.

Oh I got most of it apart exsept for the damn locking nut underneath, Cant get a good grip on it. Once I get that off some how, the rest will go back in fairly streight foward way. I just dont see why they need to tighting things down so much. When I replaced the pipes in the sink I did not tighten them back down that much, And I havent had any problems with them leaking since then either.

See this is why I wished we lived closer together. I have a special tool for Those odd and hard to reach Nuts. It alows you to Change the angle, and Still retain a goodGrip in order to Break Free Just about any Kind of Not and or Bolt assembly.

It's Hard to do with Pliers, or Vice grips, But This Thing ould do It in a matter of seconds.

Just be glad you don't have to Replace the Wax Seal. If you seat the uhm Seat wrong, You'll have a major Sewage leak, and have to Buy another one.
