Filled internal fresh water tank until overflow was running then noticed a slow drip under van near the drain pipe. 2 days later and still dripping and 1/4 tank leaked out.
It's not coming from the drain pipe itself.
(The van has had a long unexpected layup without any water in.)
The tank has one of these new fangled drain down devices with a knob/wheel at the top and an internal rod that activates the valve at the base.
Supposed to be quarter turn to leave 25% full. Further turns to empty completely.
I suspect that where this device is fitted to the bottom of the tank that the sealing rubber washer is what is actually at leaking. There's no water coming down the drain pipe with the mechanism closed
Does anyone have a diagram of this type of drain down devices they can share with me???
There does not seem to be any internally visible means of tightening the base of the device to the base of the tank.
Anyone had any success with these super new sealants that are claimed to work underwater???
Else it dismantle the furniture around the tank in order to get it out to get a new rubber washer into the bottom of the tank.
Any other ideas???
TIA
