The amount of expertise on this board is amazing, so I'll throw out my latest puzzle. We went to our vacation condo and found the following plumbing problem:
1. When flushing the toilet in the master bathroom, the kitchen sink drain emits a bubbling noise. Flushing the toilet in the guest bathroom does not cause the drain to bubble.
2. The master bathroom sink occasionally decides not to drain. At all. Then, seemingly randomly, it suddenly drains normally and continues to operate normally for a while. The other sinks drain normally always.
I'm thinking something along the lines of a plugged roof vent to the master. Sound reasonable?
