Water in toilet drains out slowly

I use olive oil on it or Pam works great no leaking do it a couple times a season

good luck

I'll try the vaseline.

For my 5ver, where water has never stayed in the bowel (draining in probably an hour or so), do you think the seal came defective from the factory? Guess I'll replace that seal too.

Revised: Googled this stuff and found out about the seal, removing the toilet, etc. Wow. I had no clue.

Just curious -- have others done this job? 12 year old Class C, a seal I've never cleaned, it's held up pretty well.

As long as it's not your bowel.

If I am reading this right it sounds to me like the seal is worn out and leaking. I don't have the ball type, but have the blade style and if the seal is worn or dirty it will leak. JMO
