The DW & I changed our black tank valve last week. Never a pleasant job made more unpleasant by difficulty of access & extremely little room to separate flanges to get valve in without dislodging the seals.
In my application the seals are placed on the pipe flanges, separate, insert valve, bolt together.
Advice. The chances are that the bolts are severely rusted. Avoid this problem in the future by getting a set of stainless steel bolts & stainless nuts with the nylon insert.
