Recently my toilet has been flushing slow. Not bad with nothing in it but if you put some toilet paper down it slows down flushing almost like it not going to go down. Had main line snaked for roots has been a problem in the past. Pulled it up to check for any obstruction everything looked fine. Replaced wax ring. Cleaned holes around the rim they didn't seem plugged. It's a norris toilet doesn't have a jet at the bottom to help push the water faster. Don't think anything got flushed down accidentally. Any other ideas?? :confused: that for your response

I have one that most repair plumbers miss.. Look down at the bottom of the bowl. If there is a small hole, then that is a jet that starts the syphon action. If it's clogged the water will just swirl around and slowly go down leaving solids behind. Take your finger,(UGH! ) and run it around the inside of the opening. Over the years minerals build up and cut down on the syphon (flush) action. If it is rough or you feel build up, take a table knife and put a bend in it to get around the curve in the bowl and chip and scrap it clear. Next take a coathanger and clear out the holes around the rim. They start the swirling action. And last, check the water level in the tank. It should be 1/2" below the top of the over flow tube. And speaking of the overflow tube, Make sure the small 1/8" tube from the ballcock to the white overflow tube is connected so it discharges in it and that it's flowing when the ballcock fills. This is what raises the water level in the bowl. For a good solid flush they all have to work together. Hope this helps and thank you for rating my reply.. Tom
