How am I going to Unclog my sink?!?!

[compudog]

I have had reall good luck using a shop-vac (wet/dry vacuum cleaner.) If you can get fairly close to the blockage, hook up the shop-vac and let 'er rip. Many times this will work and pull the blockage back the way it came. Good luck!

Drain-o sucks really bad. they shouldnt sell it to people seriously. Way back when my dad drove the mental bus this guy told him the story of why he was there, he didnt really seem right in the is what my dad said. Well anyway, this guy was a drug dealer and isntead of selling the stuff he used it up. So when the people providing it found out this and he didnt have the money they got pissed. They found him on the streets one night and held a gun to his head and a bottle of Drain-o to his nouth and told him to drink it or die. he started drinking it and all the sudden he couldnt see anymore. He went completely blind like 4 seconds after drinking this stuff. I really wish my dad didnt tell me this story because it is horrible to imagine. This guy was also on the mental bus so he was obviously screwed in the head too.

I hate drain o cause of this godamit. I HATE IT

So yeah, my uncle decided to wash the dishes. For some reason he must have thought that I had a garbage disposal because the damn thing is WAY clogged with junk.

I tried Dran-o, no luck. I took apart the mine pipe that goes straight from the sink, it's clear. The "U" bend at the bottom is clear, so I take that off. Now comes the piece of horizontal pipe that goes out of the house. Stick my finger in there and yeah....it's clogged!

I can't stick my finger in far enough to fish the crap out. Suggestions!?!?!?!

Leave the trap off and turn on the watter and spray it down the drain, keep a bucket underneathe to catch all the gunk and water.

Draino is weak stuff anyway that why its so cheep. Go to your local hardware store and look for something called ram-out. It will be the only one there wrapped in a plastic bag incase it leaks. msds

I bought a small 25' auger from Home Depot, Rigid brand for ~$30.00, has been irreplaceable, great for clearing all clogs. If you are a homeowner, you need one of these..

why don't you just take the elbow apart and clean it out? it will take like 10 minutes. If that doesn't work, then you can start snaking hte pipe past the elbow curve.
