Your welcome! You don’t want to know how many hours I spent watching Plumber videos and replacing everything until I figured out the Jets are clogged!

TY, I had replaced everything in my toilet and still had A weak flush was going to just buy a new one this did the trick.

That was better than all those plumbers videos!

Great work

Thank you!

I had the same problem with a toilet from the 60's. I took an Allen wrench and dug into each and every jet. Some holes were almost completely closed off. The L shape made it easy to get at them. Chunks of mineral deposits began to break off. That did the trick.

@@momsmpm Thanks, I'll try that. Though I'm certain that those hard chunks that came off were mineral deposits and not mold.

CLR or Lime away also works really well at dissolving buildups. Just put in your tank and also into the refill tube in the tank.

Never in the tank because it eats the rubber flapper away but always in the overflow pipe! Thanks for the input!

thank you! i spent forever yesterday cleaning the jets with a wire and razor and knife! the bottle brush fits in the jets? because that would be perfect to get the cleaner in there to soak!

You’re 100% correct and thank God I’m helping people not get ripped off! Ty Sharing your thoughts and liking our video!

Yes, if you do not open those holes with something like a pipe cleaner, you will not get that angled jet that gives your poops that swirly action as it goes down!

I have another video where I use my dogs cable tie out which is plastic coated but it fits perfectly inside all those jets and just takes a couple minutes instead of using the brushes for each hole! It should be connected to this one see how you like that!

I just use a metal coat hanger and bend it to fit. The main jet at the bottom of the bowl is usually the most gunked up and the main cause of the issue. Also shut off the supply valve, drain your tank, tape the rim jet holes shut...and then add some vinegar to the tank to let soak for a few hours prior to removing the scale.

I also use a coat hanger (in photo) but the bendable small brushes work better on the small jet’s. Ty for commenting.

Yup..for the small rim jets I use a small automobile pick tool. Looks almost like a dental pick but stronger. I have a set of 4 that have various angles . The 45 degree works the best.@@momsmpm
