Were it not for forums like this, we would all have to reinvent the wheel. Voila! The toilet now flushes normally! It's amazing that neither American Standard nor Fluidmaster had the answer on the Internet (or at the help desk). I set it to 10 but still had a problem, which was fixed when I removed the chain from the outermost fitting on the flapper and moved it to the innermost fitting, which is at the center of the flapper. Finally I found a helpful forum like this one where "Andy" explained that the two tiny white nubs must be pushed in with a screwdriver, allowing the bulb to turn. I was worried I would break the plastic trying to force it. Fluidmaster even has a YouTube video explaining this but never mentions how to change the setting. I wanted to set it to 10, but couldn't figure out how. (The American Standard help desk never mentioned this.) There is a scale from 1 to 10 and the flapper was set to 1, which means it closes the fastest. The problem is the Fluidmaster 540 flapper ball, which can be adjusted to delay flapper closing. Searched the web for 2 days before finding the solution, which was not in this thread, so I'm adding it now. I had the same problem, called American Standard, and they were no help.
