    I just added an accumulator in line after our Shurflo pump. Pump lost prime during the process. Would not self prime so I connected a garden hose to the winterizing by pass tube and the pump worked fine, water to all faucets. While it was pumping I turned the valve to the fresh water tank and...

    I understand this is a common problem are their any things I can try before I replace the pump? I assume it is leaking through the check valve on the pump.

    how to fix the overflow valve - fresh water tank

    see photo this is clearly another problem on the forest river manufacturing side. this valve is just open at the tank level and so what happens by the time you arrive at the destination you lose about 1/3 of water. i attached a 1/2 hose with a cap but that requires you to take it down each time...

    Check Valve Between City Water And Fresh Water Tank

    Last outing in my 2014 Surveyor SC 189 I was connected to city water and noticed that my fresh water tank inlet was leaking water out of its fill vent. I concluded that there must be a check valve stuck open somewhere between the city water inlet line and the fresh water tank outlet. Can...

    2019 22RR fresh water tank location

    long story, when I have the golf cart in the trailer, at highway speeds, I start getting the death wobble. It finally dawned on me that the weight of the golf cart is behind the axles. To counter act that, I'd like to add water to one or all three tanks when hauling the golfcart. My question is...

    Alright I feel dumb asking on here but I was wondering if anyone knows the water capacity for a 2010 stealth fb2312. It looks like I have 2 tanks tied together with a hose.

    Fresh water tank not filling

    Have a new to us 2015 Crusader RTL294 with a 60 gallon fresh water tank. Have filled it a few times now. It always seemed to fill rather quickly - faster than I thought 60 gallons would take. Tank monitor never showed more than 1/3 full, but given the flakiness of the monitors I didn’t trust...

    fresh water overflow

    I am experiencing something with my fresh water tank overflow that is somewhat frustrating. I believe that it has a sensor in the tank that when filled to a certain level will start letting the water out through an overflow tube. I can fill the tank at home, until it starts to discharge water...
