Black tank leak. Need advice.
Hi everyone, Well, I just discovered a dubious slow drip of my nearly full black tank, and I'm not sure how to proceed. Let me explain my situation. I store my 5th wheel 300 miles away from home...

I called an RV repair mechanic that I trust today, and he advised me to leave it alone and just keep the tank under 50% until the offseason when I can either fully address the issue or take it in and have a shop take care of it.
Sounds like good advice. The tanks got drained today, so when I get there next weekend, I'll add a few gallons of freshwater to the black tank and see if the problem returns. If it does with just a small amount of water, I'll be forced to stop using the toilet for the rest of the season. Not easy when you're drinking beer before a game with a bunch of people.
Crossing my fingers that this is an issue related to a full tank.
