After a week in Glamis for new years, I dumped and flushed the black tank. When I got home, water was all over the floor of the trailer and had come from under the sink. Exhausted, I left it till yesterday, I hooked up the hose to the black flush and had DW turn on the water while my head was under the sink. Head was wet, but found the problem was with a backflow preventer. Inside the housing, a plastic valve rides on a brass pin. The pin had unscrewed from the housing, allowing the valve to wedge sideways in the housing, and water to freely squirt into the trailer. Screwed the pin back in and presto... Just in case you guys have a flood. Oh, and ill post pics of the tires when I get home.
thank you for the heads up !
I will check mine out to make sure the pin hasn't started backing out.
pictures would be great of the valve you are talking about.
