Turn the water supply back on. Wait for the toilet tank to fill then check to make sure that the toilet flushes correctly. Make sure that the new flush valve seal sits snugly on the tank opening. You can often hear if the seal is leaking, which can occur if the flush valve seal is not positioned evenly in the groove all around the tower.
The most common reason for water leaking into the bowl is that your seating washer needs to be replaced. The flush button mechanism actions the seating washer. A little test you can do to find out if it is the seating washer is to turn that tap off. If the water is still running into the bowl after 5 minutes, it is the seating washer.
First, find out whether the supply locknut, a tank bolt, or the flush valve outlet is leaking. Lie down under the toilet and dry each of those areas with a paper towel. Using a flashlight, watch to see where the first drop of water develops. Another trick is to put food coloring into the toilet tank. Now take a white rag or tissue paper and

You can repair a minor leak by emptying the tank, drying the valve and spreading silicone grease on the leaking flapper valve seat and flapper to create a better seal. If you aren't sure if the flush valve is leaking, put food coloring in the tank. The valve is leaking if the bowl water turns that color.
