Julie,

1 Pour a bunch of bleach in it, wait overnight before flushing. If that
wont
do it, you'll be glad for the next suggestion.

2 Grab a handful of plastic bags (about 4) you have from wal-mart or the
grocery store. Put your hand in one to protect it from the nastiness.
Then,
other ones will serve as a plunger -- make sure you have enough to form a
ball
big enough to cover the inlet.... Push it down with 3 or four forceful
strokes
as to gewt a water hammer pushed through it (like a plunger would do)


Thanks Graham! I will give this a try and report back tomorrow!
