What tools will I need to replace the filler valve mechanism in my toilet?

I'm borrowing some tools, and the instructions are not with me. I'd like to know what tools I need to replace that filler and valve mechanism in my toilet. Thanks so much.

Best answer:
A pair of slip-joint ChannelLocks that will open to at least 1 1/2" (one-and-a-half-inches) to remove the water line from under the toilet AFTER you turn off the water at the shutoff valve (also called the 'angle stop') on the wall and to remove the bigger nylon nut under the toilet that holds the fill valve in place. And a knife to cut the little black overflow-tube hose. Have a bucket and rags handy. When installing the new fill valve, get everything hand-tight, then use the ChannelLocks to tighten it a little bit more. Reattach the water supply line to the toilet, turn the wall valve on SLOWLY and then flush the toilet after it fills, checking for function and for leaks. I like Fluidmaster 400 fill valves...straightforward, easy to install, etc., costs about $8.

All answer:
Answer 1
A crescent wrench and a pair of pliers or two pairs of pliers should do it for you, unless it is an unusual one.

Answer 2
You can change your fill valve with only a pair of channel-locks, perhaps a screwdriver for making the final adjustments.

Answer 4
A crescent wrench or two. The fill valves are PLASTIC/PVC so don't over tighten it. & NO you do not need a screwdriver since there are NO scrwes to adjust. Just shut the water off first & use a wet dry Vac to remone the water from the tank after flushing.
