Ok, my 99 Winnebago Adventurer was not bought with the thought that one day I'd have 9 people in it, but; I took 9 people to my farm for fishing. Near the end we ran out of water, (started with a full tank.) We only stayed about 48 hours, but when I was driving it back, I smelled an odor. Both my black and grey tanks were full. I dumped everything, and used the black tank rinse connection to refill the tank with clear water and dump it a couple of times.
I've stayed out there by myself for a couple of weeks without filling up the tanks, or emptying the fresh water. They prepared several meals in the MH and I told everyone to take Navy showers, and even explained to the women what that was, but... we ran out of water in about two days and filled grey and black tanks.
So my questions,
1. Why would the smell back up into the MH and how do I fix it? (It didn't happen until 1 hour after I started driving it back.)
2. When I filled the water for the trip, I just filled until the tanks looked full, is that the correct way, or am I supposed to fill it until it overflows out the tube?
3. When I prepared it for the next outing and storage, when I hooked it up to the city water fill, it did not fill the storage tanks. I had to disconnect the hose and put it in the fill tube. Isn't it supposed to fill the storage tanks while hooked up to city water? Or is there a switch somewhere I need to flip so it will continue flowing until the tanks are full?
Thanks.
PS. We all had a great time, everyone caught something, and I learned it is possible to sleep 9 people in a 37g when most are women. However; it makes it hard to sleep when the women are talking and giggling until past midnight. Lots of great memories had by all.
