Water Closet Auger is newer, better, and cheaper with less cleaning. The ol' snake gets nasty after a few years.

I PUT GASOLINE MIXED WITH BLEACH IN MY TOILET LIKE THE VIDEO SAID AND SMOKE CAME OUT OF THE TOILET AND IT GOT UNCLOGGED THANKS FOR YOUR ADVICE!!

The using of a snake crashes my tubes. Better you lean a tube cleaner set from Kärcher (water at high pressure) and your tubes will be nice and shiny withot any scratch or hole.
