Got the Sporlan valve fixed and water flowed to all fixtures-hot and
cold. Came in the house to post here that all is well, went back
outside and now no water flows when faucets are in hot position. Pump
acts satified and doesn't run when calling for hot water. Opened
water heater pressure relief valve and it just dribbles. To eliminate
the pesky Sporlan valve, I capped the city water line running to the
water heater. No change. Called Ft. Valley and got answering
machine. Grrrrr. Advice???

David, Do you get cold water now? Did you check to make sure the hot
water tank DRAIN valve is in the closed position? Not the pressure
relief. On our 86FCRB it is behind a small door under the bed on the
driver side. It is where the fresh tank drain valve etc. It simply
pulls a cable to a valve under the bed. The valve may not be seating
correctly. Get access and try the knobs see if the cables open and
close the valves.
To get on board water, make sure all of those drains are closed, the
switch out side is in the tank fill OFF position. Also make sure the
pump is working correctly ie: pumping water. I am not sure that their
is city water flowing to the tank in a separate line. The sporlan valve
simply allows the tank to fill or not. There are two inlets on the
tank, one is for the water inlet, the other is the inlet for antifreeze
going into the tank to keep the water hot while travelling. Maybe you
capped the water inlet.
Not to worry we will get ya there. If you like email me your phone #
and I can call ya...cme4boatsataoldotcom..
