Gray/black tank hookup
I just got a surprise, the drain hookup doesn't seem to fit the newer style hose.
I bought a new red supposedly universal set from Camping World. Its to small to attach to the main drain line.
Also my 2 waste gat valves want hold. Camping World has auniversal waste gate I could put on the end of the tank...but naturally universal doesn't fit my 75' Argosy.

You don't have to get the brand name "Thetford", they make it in a generic by valterra(sp?). That's what we bought, was about half the price. If you can't find one locally, then Out of doors mart has them (ODMRV.COM)

Ok, thank you. I about lost it for a second, LOL.
I was going to take the kiddies on our first trip to the local state park tonight, but a number of little leaks and stuff have popped up. LOL

I added this this weekend, I cut off the old end and added a curved PVC fitting to get the valve turned the way I wanted it. I then glued in a new waste valve with the new style fitting on each end (I cut off the 4 tips on one side so I could fit and glue it into the new pipe.
