There is a certain amount of train wreck type entertainment value....
I know a lady who (10 years ago or so) bought a new Sega GameGear, put her old broken one in the box and returned it as defective for a refund. I have also known of her doing that with computer equipment she uses in her office. She owns a local tax business btw, needless to say I don't do business with her.Quote:

On topic:
its a solid plug, likly the bread....
chances are its in 1 of 3 places: trap in bowl, stand pipe (vent), or in the elbow from the crapetoreum to the stand pipe. If the rest of the house was affected I would say city junction. If basement or other toiles on same stand pipe then its the vent or the stand pipe.
Based on description what ever's in there can be forced out of the way but then closes after the waste goes by (like a butterfly valve (-) open (*) closed).
Step one:
get off your *** and remove the crapper. (buy a new wax gaskit and closit bolts (always replace bolts when you remove the crapper, it will save you later). Never remove the tank from the craper, 90% of the time you will never get it to seal to the bowl again (and it will always start to leak when your not home)
Turn assemblage upside down (out doors, or in bath tub) to drain water etc. (not to self ensure that tub has removable trap just in case, correct if nessisary, this was one of my mistakes...pluged shower after crapper fixed, garvity is working against you...)
Inspect darined assempage, if the assembalage stinks by itself then something is living in there. 2 locations, the trap, and the connection from tank to bowl. Use flash light to insepect tank/bowl connection. Im not sure how on mine but there was signficant "groth" inthis area stinking up high heaven and making it not work, baicaly imposible to clear due to reseal problem and where it drains to (openings only get smaller after that point). Attempt to inspect the trap... typicaly if something rattles its in there, cause children. reach in and feel around for obstuctions.. rubber balls, yoyo's, pens, pencils etc. raotate assembalage frequently as if its a rubber ball it will float, may escape inspection but roll out during rotation. Took 3 attempts to locate this one.
Step 2
Typicaly the waste pipe wont stink to bad as its all darined away to the city line by then, and your vent stack has exhasueted it all. Make sure your exhasut fan is off! as this will place negative pressire in the loo drawing in sewer gasses. If this dose stink your blockage is likly in the vent stack and can only be accessed from roof.
This is a good oprotunity to snake the waste line, resistance to snake = bad, it should just lide in and go round and round.
Step 3
call a pro
Gotchya's:
if you hear anything crak during the tank/bowl replacement, just get a new one.. a risked leak is not worth it.
never reuse closit bolts, or wax seals.
use only wax seals, poly liner ok, but no rubber or poly only seals.
do not use any kind of forceing product to clear a cast iron stack it will break, once its broken you replace all of it. Use instant plumber, or forced air/water only on new ABS installations.
