Hey thanks for the tip on going in through the drain stop to get at the clog. I have owned an auger since I paid $50 to have the roto guy come out and watched what he did and I have used the clean out holes in the side of the house many many times. What a great investment of $10 for a manual auger that has a pistol grip on it. I have never known how to get down the tube drain but now I do and it worked great!!!!
