If you have a pool table and children under 5 this is for you!!
TOOLS: 10 golf balls, vegetable oil, 3' plumbers snake, plunger handle, large vice grips, and wax retainer seal ($0.89 at Wal-Mart)
1. Turn off water to toilet (usually a valve next to the toilet)
2. Pull the caps off the nuts holding the toilet down
3. Remove nuts with vice grips
4. remove tube from back of toilet (located above the valve you turned off earlier
5. pick toilet up and place in bathtub upside down
6. pour vegetable oil down the hole at the top of the toilet
7. put several golf balls down the same hole until you see them at the top
8. now use a plunger handle to punch the golf balls (not to hard or you will crack the porcelain)
9. assuming the billiard ball is removed use the plumbers snake to get all the golf balls out
10. remove the old wax seal and place new one in its place
place toilet back on its supports, bolt it down, put caps back on, hook the water line up turn it on look for leaks
hope this helps if anyone ever needs it.
