Only one I can contribute (so far)... Our black tank had been showing full for the previous two trips even though everything had drained out after both trips. Figured something had been stuck on the sensor. I read some stuff that said try ice cubes or make sure the tank is completely full before emptying. Well I decided to try that latter one and before we unhooked from the campsite, we opened the toilet and fill'er up. I get to the dump station and I'm making casual conversation with the fella across from me as I'm hooking up. I stick the end of the hose into the ground, cover it with the rock, and pull the handle all the way out. I had never filled the black tank on our trips thus far with this camper, so I guess I misjudged the pressure. Almost instantly, the poo water starts seeping out around the hole and filling up the spill reservoir. I had already stood back up and looked at the rising tide and said "Oh S(*&" and the guy across from me goes "Yep". I shut it off and let things settle down and continued with no further incident.
