WATER PROBLEMS

WATER PROBLEMS
I have a water problem,when i try to fill the tank, i see water
running from underneath the coach. I have reworked the sporlan tank
fill valve to no avail. I now think it is leaking from the tank drain
valve.Has anyone had this valve apart? it has a long bronze handle
which attachs to a cable.
The reason i think it is this valve is when i am hooked to shore water
everything works just fine with no leaks.
Today I filled the tank 1/2 full( took quite awile)I then shut the
valve off at the inlet and 10 minutes later the tank is empty. I see
no leaks inside the coach, everything is dry.
Thanks for all the help you folks give, i am still reading about
cruise control and up and down shift points.

WATER PROBLEMS
A visual cue on the leak source would be a good thing. The only way water can
come out of the bottom of my rear bath is if the tanks are full and water flows
out of the vent lines, or a copper line is split. Like when I bought it.

Have you checked to make sure that drain valve is not sticking? Mine was stuck
when I
purchased the coach. Sprayed some wd-40 to get it operational.
