I have s strange toilet, and I'd appreciate some help.
When it's used for, ah, #1, the toilet will flush normally for the most part (since it's a problematice toilet, we avoid using it for #2). Anyhow.... after being used a few time, the bowl will fill with water and then more slowly drain, until eventually you get to the point that you flush, the bowl fills with water, and then sits. The tank completely refills, and you can listen and hear the slow drain of the bowl, until it eventually empties into an empty bowl (maybe about 10 minutes later.)
I've taken a plunger to this tank multiple times, and it's always the same: following the plunger, it works normally, then gradually, after more successive flushes, it goes back to the slow drain again.
I also tried taking a snake and working this down the toilet, trying to clear any blockage or anything substantial, but nothing. Same system. A normal flush and then gradually the flushes get weaker and weaker.
Any thoughts or ideas?
