solarlord, long time no see! how are you? how's the jellied eel and blood pudding over there??
i recently realized the cause of my intermittent toilet woes: when i first moved in here, i installed a cheap universal low flow adapter thing. i will probably remove it some day but it's such a minor problem and so infrequent that it's not worth bothering with. it probably has saved us water in the long run, just annoying when it doesn't fully flush every 2 or 3 months.

Re: intermittent clogged toilet
We have a new toilet from like Jacuzzi brand or something. Flushes really well and refills in seconds. Best. Toilet. EVER.
So you can get a good toilet with the lower water usage, you just have to be picky. I think if we get a house I will want another one, because in my childhood the toilets took over a minute to fill and were very loud about it.

But...did you try hitting it with a hammer?

Re: intermittent clogged toilet
Yea I'm with Derek, I had to open flush my black tank twice this year in my motorhome. The shutter and flex pipe had had enough baby whipes and paper towels - nothing better than coming home from a 60 hour work week and wallowing in 65 gallons of sh!t and p!ss water from your friends and family while you stick coat hangers up a 3" pipe and laying on your back under the rig in the puddle . . . .

It takes more fossil fuel resources to produce new vehicles than it would take to maintain and fuel any 70's or 80's vehicle for a million miles.

OMG, I hate those! I was a janitor before and had to deal with that more times than I care to count. It's like what happened to humanity?!
