Drained and flushed the black and grey tanks for the first time. Test filled the freshwater tank for first time. Removed back seats to test for cargo carrying storage improvement, and study infrastructure layout below seats (new to us 1996 Chevy van Coachmen). Pinched finger in seat folding mechanism and cursed. Further tested water heater, water pump, refrigerator 12v. Started to test Saturday's van a/c freon recharge, but chased inside by thunderstorms. Started to load for Allentown paper show, the van's first working trip. Measured and sized up the steps needed to install new fan-tastic fan vent, but did not proceed because need to be ready for trip, will wait for a week before installation.
