I agree with Dave But have gone a step further! My RD Cistern is 150 1981 mustard Yellow how retro!
1 only crack going 70% down the back and around the side, Dismantled the inner workings of the Cistern replaced the stop valve rubber and cleaned it out Dried it off. Then using a Dremel I grooved the crack both inside and outside and I ground of a little of the glazing either side of the groove so the epoxy had some "tooth' to attach to! . Using an epoxy I did the outside first Let that harden 24hrs. Then did the inside again waiting 24 hrs To be doubly sure I then put a layer of Sikaflex -Pro sealant over the epoxy and the internal cistern wall going about 2cm either side of the epoxy to ensure no water seepage. About to reinstall Fingers crossed should be OK
