Go up on roof
Remove black tank vent cap
Top of vent pipe should be 'flush' with roof
If it has slipped down....grab it with some vice grips and pull it UP
Then secure it in place by putting a wood screw thru it into roof plywood.
Put a dab of caulking on screw...replace vent cap
If flush (not slipped down)..run a garden hose down into vent pipe.
Turn water on an blast away......best done when connected to sewer and dump valve open
One other cause of toilet 'burping'
STUFF not dropping completely down into tank...plopping right below toilet pipe.
MORE WATER when doing #2
