toilet cistern fills slow or doesn't stop All aspects of plumbing questions and answers, help, tips and information

I had a slow filing toilet cistern. I took it apart, cleaned it, and now it fills quickly but the valve does not shut off.

I replaced the diaphragm washer as it was split, but this made no difference.
