Baffled
I fitted it again this afternoon with a doughnut of plumbers mait inside the cistern and the plastic nut from the old unit underneath.
Seal around the cistern inlet now seems to be good but whatever I do the stop valve leaks - either a regular drip or water everywhere.... I've tried some PTFE tape to no avail.
I'm wondering now whether the drip was actually the stop valve all along.
Time to call in an expert I think! (though probably not much chance on a bank holiday weekend...)
