  9. Like Beekeeper said it is more than likely a water supply noise and not a
    vent problem. If the vent were clogged or partially blocked the toilet
    would not flush or would be very slow to drain. So double check the basics
    like the supply stop and supply line. More than likely though it is the
    Ballcock and replacement would be easiest.

  10. I'm not a plumber like Mr Kevin, but I have found that sounds like that are
    typically water turbulence. Could be as simple as opening the supply valve
    all the way, or closing it a bit to slow down the flow of water. Is the
    whistle in the walls? or in the flush valve inside the tank? Sometimes hard
    water deposits will form inside valves and flush assemblies and create
    noises when the water rushes past them.

  11. FYI it is called a Flapper. The Blub is that large black globe that was on
    the old ballcock you replaced in the earlier video. I've been plumbing for
    17 years. I have my License in North and South Carolina. Any who glad you
    got her all fixed up! Thumb up !

  13. Also just to warn ya I don't know if your on city sewer or not but if you
    have a septic system you don't want not use those toilet tablets cause they
    kill the bacteria in your tank! Dawn dish soap and of course bleach are no
    no's as well!
