    Toilet bowl not filling with water and draining slowly
    I'm having an issue flushing my toilet. Earlier I thought it was a clog, but thinking it's something else. When I flush the toilet, all the water from the tank comes to the bowl, and the water level on the bowl raises. It then drains very slow, can see a whirlpool as it's draining. The water in the tank fills back up at this point. After a few minutes the water in the bowl drains out, and gives a few "glug glug" sounds and the water level stays low. I've been trying to figure this out for the past 2 hours. Any ideas?

    You do have a clog in the main drain line. Try plunging to clear or have the line augered.

    Ive been plunging for probably about 45 minutes. I think I have an auger in the garage. I'll have to check.
