Well, I've never actually done it, to be honest martian, then again I've never had this problem. If I had to, I would get something I didn't give a damn about...like a small d-clip key chain...and I'd see if attaching it right at the connection of the flapper made any difference. Then I'd add something shitty like paper clips (roughly 1 g a pop) to it and see if it helps. It might not. In my experience as "another asshole who owns a house," I've fixed my toilet a ton of times, but usually haven't had the problem of the re-install not working. Usually my chain is corroded out to breaking, and replacement fixes it. I just realized that it might also depend on your floater mechanism. If it simply is a little drain-stop type deal or not. I don't know how to describe some of the other ones I've seen, but I've run into more 'complicated' versions.
Regardless, if I were you - after 2 months - I'd have the super take care of it. Why not? It's his job, and he installed the thing. Unless you just want to geek out and make a science-fair project out of it. Which is kind of what i'm doing with my weights idea. If it won't go down, make it go down. That tawdry whore.
