I've got a toilet to a septic tank that works generally okay, but
lately when I flush an all-liquid load it swirls round and round and
goes down, but doesn't rush down enough to go glug-glug, even if I hold
the lever and keep the water going. Given a solid waste to dispose of,
it will usually build up enough water on top of the load to rush out
and glug-glug just fine. Do I have a problem?


You may have a clog, a partially broken pipe where it enters the septic
tank. How long has it been since you had it pumped? I would have it pumped,
then with the lid off, have someone flush the toilet and see how well the
water flows into the tank. I had a problem where the clay tile going to the
tank had sheared off right at the tank and there was only a hole about the
size of a golf ball left. It had sunk. Replaced the pipe and now all is
fine.
