How do you stop a slow leak from a pressured toilet tank that drips from the plastic valve on the top?
It depends on the manufacturer of the pressure tank. Call them for an answer. The most common is the Sloan Flushmate system it is used by most toilet manufacturers. Kohler made their own system but it was a lemon and was discontinued they offer a retrofit tank to use the Sloan Flushmate system cost is $125 call Sloan for p/n details it has to be ordered from Kohler and will take about a month to get. Eljer also makes their own. Sloan Flushmate 800-533-3460 Kohler 920-457-4441 Eljer 800-423-5537 Repairs on these toilets can get time consuming, & expensive, replacement may be a better option. My recommendations for replacement toilets are the Toto Drake and the Kohler Cimmeron both of which are fantastic toilets that will be very unlikely to clog. Avoid Am Std Champion as there are some serious quality control issues.
Do some toilets require a manufacturer specific toilet seat to sit properly?
The label on the toilet must have been UPC (uniform plumbing code). All upc approved toilets should be universal. The seat shouldn't have anything to do with a faulty toilet. Either the seat wasn't tightened properly or the toilet is leaning to the right and just needs to be shimmed. There have been several toilets over the years that required a specail seat to fit them Eljer's Emblem , American Standard's Elisse, Kohler still makes funky shaped toilets and several more brands you can check the brand where the bowl meets the tank then look inside the tank to get the model # usually on the lid. then check with a plumbing company like www.lockeplumbing.com to get the right seat. 2 types of seat- elongated bowl or round bowl.
When was Crane Plumbing Corporation created?

What is wrong with your toilet if you have to hold down the handle to get it to flush all the way and how can you fix it?
To be honest, my whole family have had to hold down the handle to get it to flush in one of our toilet for two years until today that I searched this page and do my trouble shooting. I replaced the Flapper two years ago, and did not realize that the first step that you need to do is to cut the collar off from the new Flapper if your toilet has mounting arm. The Flapper is designed to fit two different kind of toilets, the one with mounting arm and the one that doesn't have(and thus need a collar). If the collar is not cut off. it generates push down force every time you press the handle to flush the toilet. That is the reason that you need to hold down the handler. Inside the tank, there is a flush valve. Depending on the age of the toilet, it typically either is a "flapper" or "tank ball' style. Each type have a little bouyancy...when you press tank handle, the suction is broken, and the flapper or ball floats open. As the tank empties and the water level gets lower in the tank, the flapper or ball re-settles on its seat. Your flapper or ball is not floating open. Look inside tank, press handle. Observe flapper or ball. If the flapper or ball does not float open, you may need to simply shorten the chain...just a little. Typically, you can readjust the chain linkage where it connects to the handle. Also, you can pull the chain from inside the tank...without using the handle to see how it is supposed to work and determine how much slack is needed in the chain. Good Luck The "floating open" problem in the previous answer may be from a deteriorating flapper. The upside down cup that holds the air may be torn, and allow the air to escape too fast, dropping the flapper prematurely. I had the same problem and thanks to these previous answers, I solved my problem. It is very hard to describe parts without pictures, but here goes. There is the small hose that emits water into a "column" which goes to the "rubber flapper". I first checked my flapper to see if it had eroded and it seemed fine, actually almost new. While I was checking that, I noticed that the flapper had a rubber round part which instead of being over the "column", was behind the column. It made sense to me that this round rubber part should go over the column, so I pulled the flapper off at the sides where it was connected (by these two small tabs) and pulled the rubber ring up and over the column. I pushed the ring all the way down to the bottom of the column and over the two plastic tabs at the bottom of the column. I then felt around and made sure the flapper was not leaking (kind of like checking to make sure a rubber stopper in a sink is not leaking) and it was good. The chain was adjusted so there was not a lot of slack. I had a toilet that was constantly running in the powder room. It is an Eljer installed when the house was built in 1992. The flapper valve was quite deteriorated and the flush handle/lever was worn and sticking. I replaced the other 2 toilets in the house with much higher quality Toto toilets a few years back. Money is tight at the moment so I decided to just fix this one. I bought a new "Korky" flapper valve and a replacement flush handle at a local hardware retailer and replaced them. After this I noticed that the water level in the bowl was much lower after refilling and that I had to hold the lever down to get it to complete a flush. After reading the above answers and several others from other websites I took the lid back off the tank and this is what I found: The new flapper valve was manufactured with a hole in it that immediately let the air out once the flapper valve is vertical, causing it to drop down and reseal the tank too soon. I shut off the water and removed the flapper valve, dried it off, and placed a smal piece of electrical tape over the hole to see if the flapper valve would then perform properly and it did. Also I noticed that when I had done the original work I failed to replace the bowl refill tube back into it's original location in the overflow tube and that was what was causing the lower water level in the bowl after flushing. There is nothing complicated or requiring long explanations about this - Simply remove flapper, get a universal flapper and fit it - done !
