    For openers you're not plunging correctly for a double lavarory. You must pack wet rags into both overflows and remove the stopper from lavatory number two and jam wet rags to seal off the drain. Have someone hold the rags so they don't pop out as you push down on the plumger. Good luck and if that doesn't clear the clog click on back and we'll snake that sucker out. Good luck, Tom
