Where to install plumbing air vent?
The highest 4 inch pipe should have a vent on it, or directly above a toilet junction Above the flood level rim of the fixture it is servicing IT does not mean the toilet
Do you need to vent a new toilet in a basement if it is connected to a 3-inch pipe that has other toilets on the floors above connected to it?
Yes. If not it will be a wet vent and cause MAJOR problems.
Can you connect a new toilet to an older toilet vent?
Yes if the vent pipe is 4" and vertical by code and there is nothing connected between your toilet tee and where you would connect your new toilet tee. If not worried about codes then yes you can connect to a 3" vent line if no other vent lines are connected down stream. If you have a vent pipe that is less then 3" and or you have other vents connected between your old toilet tee and your new toilet tee then NO you can not connect a new tee for your toilet.

Any vent is usually the size of the drain or waste pipe it is connected to. 3 or 4 inch on a toilet.
Does a toilet in the basement need its own vent or can it share the vent of the drain it is tied into?
Should be individually vented
How close does the vent need to be to the toilet drain to be effective?
As close as possible is best, but there just has to be a vent so that the air that is in the line has somewhere to go so that the liquid isn't trying to compress it. The closer the vent is to the toilet, the better it will flush.
