All -
I am currently working on my first RV. I purchased a 1975 Nu Wa, 19 ft, at an auction a few weeks back. It has been in need of some real TLC.
I went to test the toilet today and was pleasantly surprised that it seemed to work. A fe minutes later, I check it again and noticed it is leaking near the foot pedals.
So, obviously I am going to need to fix this but then got to wondering about replacing the whole toilet. It seems like if I am going to tear in to it, I might as well since this appears tobe the original set up.
Doing some web searchs, there sure seems to be a wide range of availability. On the low end is the La Toilette for under a hundred bucks.
I have a few questions. The first being are most of these RV toilets pretty much interchangeable or I am going to run in to specific application issues?
Second, are there major differences between the brands and styles available on the market?
Lastly, my current setup has two pedals, one appears to fill the bowl and the other flushs and partially fills the bowl back. Do I need to find a new toilet that has the exact same configuration?
Thanks in advance for the help.
Best,
Dave M
