Last night I took all the bolts off which held the galvanized steel pan up. I was surprised that the tank was held up only by the plumbing, no straps. The pan and the sheet of styrofoam support it from below. I found the hole. It was the size of a small fist, with tooth marks around the edge.

I have a couple of catalogs from local RV places, and they list a "holding tank repair kit". It is supposed to have the right adhesive and patch for this type of plastic tank.

Does anyone have experience with these kits? Are there any tricks, other than lightly sanding the surfaces? We'll pick one up today and try it tonite.
