[Shop-talk] another toilet issue

[Tim .]

Hey all,

While trying to sort the valve on our upstairs toilet, the toilet itself now doesn't fully flush. The tank bits cycle, the toilet fills, but it only drains slowly. It doesn't "gurgle" (for lack of a better term) at the end.

This has been going on for over a week now so I doubt there is anything stuck. (no feminine products in use in our house any more so that is not an issue.) I've plunged the hell out of it, pushing down and also sucking up with plunger. I can't really get a snake to go very far into the trap so not much help there.

I remember reading years ago that a clogged or compromised vent can affect sink drainage. Is it possible that this issue is affecting this toilet? The sink and tub in the upstairs bathrrom are no affected. They both drain fine. Hell, nothing else in the house is affected.

thoughts please?
thanks
tim
