Hello all, I am in need of some help. I have an 07 attitude 26FSAK. The fresh water tank is leaking from the fitting going into the water pump. The fitting is (i think) a 1" female bung that is glued into the tank. There is a 90 elbow that threads into that and the hose comes off from the elbow going to the water pump. The female fitting is cracked down the side where the threads are. I dont know what the tank is made of, just that it is a black plastic. The fitting is a clear or white color. Any advice is appreciated.

Any advice is appreciated.It's ABS. I just bought a repair kit for mine but the fitting is a different material I believe, not sure how to fix that, might have to ask an RV shop. If its accessible might be able to replace it and patch the tank but it takes a special tool/process to put those fittings in. Where is the fitting? If its at the top might just want to wrap it with rubber and a hose clamp since there's no pressure on it, if not then a full repair is in order.

The fitting is in the bottom corner. I took it to an RV shop and they told me it needs a new tank. I tried JB weld and it did not work. Has anybody had any luck with this?http://www.dyersonline.com/valterra-1-1-4-90-barbed-elbow-water-fill-kit.html

if its easy to get to? they make BARREL flanges, , you cut a hole in the tank,I,d cut the old plug out and put one in. also boat flanges .

I just looked on ebay,, there called thru the hull flanges.
