I accidentally jammed the tub stopper and it won't come out, instead of using the level I just pushed it down... Is there any way to fix this without taking all the system apart? Or Do I also just need to get a new waste system for the tub?
 
Try a rubber sucker, like the end of a child's toy arrow or similar. Pull gently on the sucker while pushing the lever down.
 
I tried that already and didn't work , I believe because it was kinda of screw type it wont come out that way
 
Ha ha use a wet and dry vac to get the water out first.
 
Any chance for you to post a photo?
