: I hope some of the pro plumbers will jump in here if I'm off mark, but it sure sounds like a vent problem. The wash water is creating suction because it needs air to drain and that's what is pulling the water from the toilet. I've been told it might be a vent problem, but it doesn't happen all the time, most times. I've also been told that I might need a "airgap". What is that? Whats the best way to check the vent? Thanks again. charlie
