So I dug out a full cup of gravel and silt, along with a small foam ball, a penny, and a nail.

After flushing it with water to make sure it was good and clean, it flows great.

It had a threaded plug to block the cleanout, but it wasn’t the right size, and besides the threads in the cast iron are all rusted away. So I filled it with a compression plug. Seems to be working well.

    Yeah the my buddies who looked at it with me told me not to bother with an inspector. So there’s probably song logic to that. But I figured I’d kick myself if I didn’t get an inspection, and then found something dumb later, I’d always wonder if I could’ve known better 🤷‍♂️

    I paid for peace of mind, not that expensive in the grand scheme of things
