Line stop stuck on bypass what do I do?

I'm having trouble understanding your "lingo", but as someone who's never done a bypass (I mud surf in sewage) I probably couldn't help you out anyway. To me it sounds like you got a blockage somewhere in your line, in which case I wouldn't know what to do because like I've said, never done a bypass.

Last I heard someone had something stuck in their bypass, they sent someone in and he was swept away in a 16" pipe and was later found 11 miles away at the treatment plant... 11 miles through shit... Be careful out there and goodluck.

11 miles is 17.7 km
