Leaking BWT(groan) - txfulltimers - 03-04-2011 13:35 Howdy. Well, we have a slow drip through the underbelly from the black water tank. I put a clear plastic container under the Bird. No doubt about it, it is black water. It is slow but it is still a leak. <sigh> Will have to find a shop in the San Antonio, TX to fix this problem.

The heating circuit under the tank had melted the coil pattern into the ABS and it had cracked along those lines. It would only leak when the less than 6 or so inches of water was in the tank. More than that and the pressure would seal it off! I removed the tank myself and an RV repair place fiberglassed it for me. Working well at this point.
