Pioneer 19t4 TT water tank problem

2003 Pioneer 19t4 by fleetwood Travel trailer with the 50 gal. fresh water tank. I cannot seem to locate this in the TT forum.
Mine starts to pull air when the tank gets to 1/3 rd. full. Above that level it pulls water just fine. I've changed the outlet fitting from the tank and the hose to the pump. This did not solve the problem. Any info as to a fix?? Thanks Shep.
  • Update: Plumbed new from the drain on the tank. 3/4" to a 3/4x1/2x3/4 tee then to a drain valve at the side of the trailer, (Very convenient). Ran the 1/2 off the tee up to just above the floor (sealing the bottom entry) and then 90 degree with hose barb and hose to strainer and pump. Works very well. I pluged the outlet at the top of the tank, I believe the tank is vented through the small hose next to the fill line. Wife and I did an overnighter with four granddaughters and had no problems with the water system. All seems well.
