Discussion Desired on BWT Replacement

[Chuck Wheeler]

My experience is that Silicon Calk will
not hold. I do not know about a ’93 but on our ’83 the tanks
are fiberglass. Easy to repair with West systems products. If you
are interested I can get the numbers from the product series we used. I
have repaired three tanks and had not had any further problems. One had a
shattered flange where the drain connected, one had road damage, and one on
another coach had a leak where the tank washer was installed.

Discussion Desired on BWT Replacement

Howdy.

We are realizing that there were repairs to the black
water tank by
previous owners of our 1993 Wanderlodge. I have found seeping where the tank makes a 90 degree corner. Repaired that. Now, there
is seeping where the tank and sewer pipe are
joined and there is a hose clamp there. So I found seepage on that. So I coated
it liberally with silicon caulk. SHMBO is not happy and would like to replace
the present tank with one that is not so oddly
shaped. Have you replaced the black water tank in your BB? A
slightly smaller tank would be o.k. Comments,
ideas, please?



TIA,

Jack
