toilet burps

[Sonny C. Shipler]

I was wondering what causes toilets to burp or gurgle when their flushed. I have not found anything on this. From what I understand is if its a bad vent, then you need to flush more than once. Could the burping be from bad venting also?

Could be vent is partially clogged,check from the roof.
How far away is the stack?

Sometimes a hard object such as a toothbrush gets caught in the trap and causes issues.

Common' Sonny. Don't you let out a burp after a big meal?

The stack is right there, from what I can tell. I just cant figure it out

Does this have a septic tank? It may need to be pumped. A plugged screen or drain field would do it.

I recently had a cell phone blocking a toilet, so don't rule out an obstruction.

My toilet makes a farting sound when I sit on it. Is this normal??

That's interesting... Mine does the same thing when I'm standing in front of it.

Bob...... you aren't rinsing your toothbrush in the "magic spring" again, are you?
