So, we finally get our RV delivered, they forget to detail half the RV and somebody did something to the black tank that has caused such a stench of methane you wouldn't believe it. I climbed up the ladder to the roof and there is no bad smell coming from the black tank vent but inside the RV holy cow the smell is unreal!!
So, I dump the tanks and the black tank take 4 minutes to empty, considering I dropped it off at the dealer with 5 gallons of fresh clean water in the tank this shocks me. I go buy a new hose strictly for flushing the black tank and proceed for the next hour to flush the black tank and even after all of that there is a methane stench inside the coach.
I run the fantastic fan for an hour, still it smells, there is obviously now a venting problem. The roof vent does not come off, it is mounted permanently so I can't check it for blockage. I run water through all the drains in the RV to insure this isn't some kind of backup in the gray water tank.
Tomrrow I will call the dealer first thing in the AM to see what they can do, everytim we run water by flushing the toilet the stench comes through the toilet, I know this has to be a venting problem but can't locate it. What a pain in the arse.
