What causes air bubbles to come out of the siphon jet of a toilet during flushing.
My problem toilet sends air bubbles out of the siphon jet opening when it is flushed. I get bubbles first and then water. The bubbles disrupt the flushing action and slow it way down. The slowness of the flush seems to encourage clogs. To get a halfway decent flush I have to hold the lever down until the water actually starts down. The tank is filling to the fill line. My other toilet, that doesn't have a jet, flushes just fine. The one with the problem is located closer to the street sewer line.
