For basement drains we have pushed black plastic pipe into 4" clay tile to clear problem areas such as Maple trees. Once you are past the problem area, just leave the plastic line in as a liner, no more problems. The black plastic pipe comes in coils of 100' and 250' (?) in the bigger sizes. I just push pipe in into the tile until I reach the obstruction and then use pressurized water to drill through as required, you have to work it back and forth sometimes. It helps to leave it out in the sun a few days to get the "coil" out of it - but sometimes that is not possible.
At 5 GPM a 1" ID line will result in a pressure loss of approximately 4 psi, a 1.5" ID line will result is less than 1 psi of pressure drop. In your case I would go the entire distance with the liner. Use a vacuum breaker if suction is a problem.
