tank vents 90SP36 - williamcharrison - 10-27-2006 03:20 This may sound funny but there is a noticeable gurgle from the kitchen sink drain when I empty the sink. I checked the vent on the top right center of the coach and ran a plumbing snake down it. I felt an obstruction and from the dirt on the end of the snake I surmised it was the remnants of a wasps nest. I continued to feed the snake down the vent but never did touch water and the gurgle is still there. Any ideas? Chuck Harrison Akron, Ohio 90 SP36 tank vents 90SP36 - Leroy Eckert - 10-27-2006 04:30 Chuck, My sinks have 1 1/2" pipes near the trap that are about 1 foot long and are vertically mounted. On top is a valve spring loaded closed. I do not know why they are there unless the valve provides an emergency gas escape in the event the main vent is plugged. If that valve is open it might cause the noise you described. Just a swag.
