My 2-story house was built in 1993 with Crane 3.5 gallon toilets. Lately, one of the 2nd story ones needs 2-3 flushes and occasionally even that isn’t enough. It doesn’t seem clogged, as it eventually flushes fully without any plunging. The tank gear is typical Flushmaster and seems to be working fine. Water leaves the tank at the same velocity as always. The tank refills fully and in the same time as always. I’ve reamed out the rim holes (hard water) with a paper clip, and let CLR sit in there for awhile with no effect.
The lavatory right next to it on the same wall drains perfectly so I’m not sure it could be a vent issue.
I’m not a plumber but have done most of my own plumbing work for 30+ years including new faucets, toilet tank gear, water heaters, etc. So this one has me stumped. Any advice would be appreciated!
