Tornado Flush System on Black Tank Damaged

I have a Tornado Black Tank Flush installed. In an accident the hose connection was snatched off at the skirt where it was attached. It crimped the hose and loosened the install at the black tank. Will need to get a new hose with new hose connection which attaches to chassis or skirt. The screws at the black tank install have been tightened but still has drip. Can this be corrected by getting larger screws? Or new washer at install. The 5 belly pans are already down for related repairs.
  • Good suggestion. The drip is coming from under the install so will take it off and check.
  • If you can see the mount to the tank easily, pull it off and see if the holes are stripped. If that is the case, a next size larger screw might do the trick. Adding a sealant to the screws when installing could also help. You need to figure out why the leak and where it is coming from before trying to fix something that might not be the problem.
