    Have you put anything in the tank, such as bluing or bowl cleaner that could stop up the rim holes? Follow Stews advice and let us know. Good luck, Tom

    As a last resort you can replace the toilet bowl, but before you do that I would remove the tank and pour bleach down into the tank opening after first feeling around to see what's built up down there. Good luck, Tom
