not enough room to take the nut off behind the tank...any ideas?

[sajuaro]

this looks promising, but the time it takes me to find the next video is longer than the videos themselves... why not number them in sequence to help us out?

I think he is correct to say counterclockwise because the proper perspective is looking up from the floor. But since the camera and our eyes are looking from the top down, we are seeing it from the reverse angle.

The nut is threading counterclockwise off of the shank, it just looks clockwise from the "backside" angle the camera is viewing.

he said counter clockwise while turning it clockwise -_-

And if the nut on the shank is too tight, spray WD40 on it and let it soak about 30 minutes before trying to remove it.

Both nuts directly underneath tank must be turned clockwise when taking the old fill valve off...not counterclockwise as stated in this video. But if you watch closely, you will see this plumber turning clockwise in this video as he says turn "counterclockwise". This is important because if the nut underneath the tank is tightened too tight, you risk damaging the tank. This video messed me up & I needed a hacksaw to remove the tank nut after turning it wrong way. Turn it CLOCKWISE to remove.

Absolutely.. this is very concise but can you please have all the connecting videos in order so we can watch them in succession...
