[DIY] Toilet tank leak from bolts or gasket?

 

I stepped into a small puddle of water in our bathroom today -- not a lot, but still unpleasant. After cleaning up the water, I determined the leak is from the toilet tank (it was wet on the underside of the tank).


I shut off the supply line and flushed it but did not drain the remainder at the bottom. An hour later, there is no "sweat" on the underside of the tank or at the toilet base where there the bolts/gasket connect.


I'm pretty novice at toilet repair, but logically, I think this means the gasket is the culprit, not the bolts since there is still water on top of the bolts but none in the gasket from the flush. Does that make sense? Wanted to double check here before I head to Home Depot.


Thanks!


Mike
