A gurgling sound tells you that you have a blocked vent and the discharge is attempting to vent through a fixture trap. The sound you here is air being pulled through a trap seal.
The solution is to snake the vent from the roof. Put out enough snake to reach the base and 16 feet more. Good luck, Tom
