If your toilet won't flush the first time around, there are several things you can do. First, look inside the tank to make sure the chain hangs loosely from the flapper cap to the handle. When the chain is overly long, the flapper cap won't open, so the toilet won't flush very well. Shorten the chain by attaching one link of the chain to another link. If that doesn't solve the problem, consider the tank's water level, since it is the deciding factor in the flush strength. If the tank isn't filling properly, twist the float bulb valve until it points in an upward direction. If the tank doesn't fill after that, look at the toilet bowl rim holes. Clean them if they are clogged with debris. Finally, if those measures don't work, adjust or replace the faulty fill valve since it is problem broken. …show more content…

To fix it, buy a flapper valve replacement at your local hardware store and follow the installation instructions on the package.
