Since we are on this topic. Why are there two tanks? and not just one big one for both black and gray? I often wondered that but never ask.

Bobtop46 said:Upsman, sounds like the previous owners had a "poop pyramid" going on and you are slowly breaking it down. After each time you dump, what's left of the pyramid stinks from not being under water. You add more water, and the process repeats and will until the pyramid is finally dissolved and dumped. From then on do as is suggested above. Leave black tank valve shut unless dumping, after dumping add 5-10 (depending on tank size) gallons of water to the empty tank, and keep water in the bowl. Water is your friend.

No problem. We couldn't believe what came out of our tanks, especially the grey one! Glad to see you are getting the problem resolved or dissolvedUpsManBrad said:Thanks!
