Default Toilet doesn't flush right

the clogged interior passages can be easily fixed..........


Water use at time of flush has nothing to do with it. The ball flap
closes before the water tank is empty. That would only affect the refill
time, of course if you are so stupid as to try and flush before the tank
is full and shut off it's your problem. If your rim jets are clogged you
have bigger water problems.

sorry wrong, at the moment you flush the flapper opens and water thru
that thin line that goes into the tube sticking up goes into the bowls
rim.

that water starts the wave that helps flush the toilet.

rim clogs from hard water are very common. over time stuff builds up.
easily and cheaply fixed too.
