Leaking FIBERGLASS Black tank
Hello all
My Class B rig, a 99 Xplorer XLWT, has a leak in the black water tank, which is fiberglass, and resides INSIDE the vehicle, and is molded into the shower enclosure. Removal of this tank is pretty much impossible without tearing the whole rig apart.
I can't see the leak, but the carpet inside is wet, and eventually, the moisture makes its way outside...that's how I discovered the leak. (Edit: Runs in the side of the tank are resin from initial manufacture.)
Is there some sort of material that can go INSIDE the tank to seal it? I think I can manage to get the toilet off the tank to get in there and clean it well enough.
Not fun.
Ideas?
Thanks,
Gerard
