Glad you could flush that problem.

Have you dumped the tank yet?  My neighbor had a similar situation with his trailer (not a pod)  and it plugged the dump valve.

Which is why I advocated retrieving the clog back out the way it went in.....Tongue

Toilet paper isn't a problem if you fill the toilet at least 1/2 full for #2, and if necessary, flush more than once.  Also add several gallons of water along with the tank chemical of your choice right after emptying the tank.

Right.....
Toilet paper is not a problem if one uses the correct paper and plenty of water.   Been doing it without problems for 40 yearsWink
