Shame I am not a little closer as I have a drain jetter, works very well & is always worth a try before digging out a drain.

Thanks for the offer, but I have one of those too, problem is the pipe is only 2 inch and runs under the shop floor and as the blockage is on the outside of the shop where the 2 inch changes to 90 copper bend down into an old 4 inc cast pipe, so jetting from the MH end is not possible, and jetting from in the shop posses the problem of water/gunge disposal as well as the smell, the only reason we did not change this at the beginning was because this pipe took all the main kitchen sinks etc and it seemed to flow OK when we tested it, I am looking at the possibility of moleing a new pipe into an internal MH which is only about 4 ft away I can make an excavation behind the bar as the floor is separate, but cannot afford to touch the wood floor in the shop, Rick
