I would suggest to try turning that knob counter-clockwise.

No you just need a new flapper for your flush valve. Its just a 2 minute job.

No, it's not normal. I suspect you missed one of the early steps in the installation. The bottom of the tub needs to be fully supported. We often use mortar to set the bottom of the tub so it doesn't move. If you did that, the whole floor may be sagging under the weight. We see this sometimes in houses built to minimum code.

google "house plumbing illustration" and then click on "images" on the top left of the screen it will give you a plethora of images on plumbing. Have fun!

Try a pumice stone they work great & can make a toilet bowl look brand new, there with the cleaning supplies in any store.D :)

Harvest Gold? Do you still have avocado appliances as well? Actually the advise to call Kohler is spot on. I highly doubt they have it. I would keep an eye out on EBAY for vintage products and you may be lucky. If your sold on the color you may spray paint a standard one and then clear over the top to protect it.

I would suggest a new plunger that will seal.

You are going to have to replace the entire seat more than likely. Never seen one that you could replace those stand off's. Hope this helps!

check for correct water level in the cistern have a plumber clean out the lines as there may be a blockage in the pipe

A grommet seal has disolved. You need to turn off the water main and replace or rebuild the affected shut-off valve or faucet. Use a Monkey wrench. .

not really as the flush time is set by the manufacturer in the design what can be adjusted is the water level in the cistern the more water , the longer the flush before the reset ( shut off)action is activated adjust that by the float screw ot water level adjust screw on the inlet stem

are there any floor drains in the room and an unused bathtub or shower? if so the water may have evaporated from the trap and allow the sewer gas smell. try pouring water into all the drains and see if it is still happening. more elaborate problem may be a broken vent stack in a wall.

sounds like the hot and cold lines were installed backwards.
