Whenever I have any sort of technical or mechanical issue I know I can come here and you guys will solve it.
I have a toilet mystery.
Background: I have repaired toilets many times. I have replaced toilets. I have installed new toilets and even the entire drain-waste-vent system in my cabin. And yet there are still things I don't understand about toilets.
My problem: 3-4 months ago our previously functioning master bathroom toilet (2nd floor) stopped maintaining the bowl water level. It flushes normally. The bowl fills back up to the normal level. But over 5-10 minutes the water level in the bowl (not the tank) goes down to about 1/4 of the normal level. I see no cracks in the bowl or waste channel. There is no water on the floor. There is no water or stains on the downstairs ceiling below the toilet.
It might be something obvious but I cannot figure this one out. Open to any and all suggestions. Thanks in advance.
