Black Tank valve failure scenarios
Most scenarios I can think of would not be pleasant at all! I can think of one where it would not be a big deal. Any stories to share? How was it handled?

Many years ago I bought a used TT that had a leaky valve. It would just trickle a bit and I found it during the first trip (of course).
It was very hot (Ks area) so I let the tank dry for a couple of weeks and then lifted the drivers side of the trailer so any fluids would run back towards the tank.
When I removed the old valve everything was dry and there really wasn't anything nasty. I just slid the old valve out and slid the new one in.
The key was letting everything dry out and tipping the trailer.
