[QUOTE="Parks 788, post: 1345404, member: 14646"] I had to do this eleventybillion times growing up in my parents house. My mother thought she could put everything down the sink whether the dispsal was on or not. We got clogs all the time. Unscrew the drain clean out. If water flows out that means the clog is "downstream" of the cleanout and not near the pee-trap up under the sink. Take a garden hose with just the bare tip (no nozzels or anything) and turn the water on as high as it will go. Start shoving the hose down the through the clean out. For a bit of time you will get water rushing back out the clean out so just keep pushing the hose further into the pipe. Once the water stops rushing out the clean out the clog is dislodged. Keep the hose running for several minutes to wash all the debris into the main sewer out to the street. I have had to put as muuch as 15-20' of hose into the sewer line for it to unclog. You are basically blasting the crap/clog down to the main sewer. Unles you have sever grease buildup from pourig that crap down the sink you should be good to go. [/QUOTE]
