Well I flushed it out and it helped with the smell alot. And I filled the 2 grey tanks and emptied them. They are now empty and so is the black tank. I also found that stuff at Walmart and poured some in there too. So now all that is left are those gnats. They get worse everyday so I will deal with them this week while he's at work. Thanks everyone for the help I really do appreciate it. And on that flushing thing on the trailer it had like a rubber thing around the inside I thing was the back flow valve.
I only have 2 tanks, but my dump sequence is:
After hooking up the sewer hose:
1. hook up the black tank flush hose and turn it on for about 10-15 seconds
2. open black valve while the flush is running
3. close black valve when tank is empty, leaving flush running
4. let black tank fill almost completely back up with the flush water
5. turn flush off
6. dump black tank a second time
7. close black valve
8. open the flush hose again for 15-20 seconds to put a little water back in the tank, then shut it off and disconnect the hose
9. open grey valve and let drain fully (this helps rinse the sewer line, too)
10. close grey valve
Disconnect the sewer hose, put the cap back on the dump line and put your sewer hose back in storage. WASH HANDS! :-)
Don't forget that, if you're in a campground for more than a couple days, you're likely to need to dump 1 or both your grey tanks =before= dumping your black tank. Will depend on if you're using the CG bathrooms/showers.
We use any of several different black tank deodorizers/treatments. Not all WallyWorlds have what you might like in stock at any given time so sometimes I just have to take pot-luck.
Please do a search for the GEO Method for black tank treatment. Easy and self-explanatory. Helps keep your tank cleaner.
