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 most likely need the Thetford adapter. It too is available at most RV suppliers.

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)

Universal Adapter 89-8295 [89-8295] - $5.95 : ODMRV , Out-of-Doors Mart

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.
