I called Dometic, and the only suggestion they made was to make sure the clamp wasn't binding in the back. The representative I spoke with as much as admitted that the new style gasket has "backfired" on them. Am I going to have to replace a freaking toilet over a bad gasket design?

The gasket between the base and bowl of our Dometic Traveler Lite 210 started leaking.  I replaced the gasket this weekend (new version with two pieces) but I cannot get the new one to seal completely.  Fill the bowl up with water (or other stuff, fun...) and you can see the drip from around the...

Sandy Riverfront in Troutdale?  They stay full, but you never know. http://sandyrv.com/ We've also stayed at Portland Fairview RV Park.  (503) 661-1047 They are much bigger.

Thanks Jim!  We're in Bend.
