Not only did you explain this very well, and with great camera work, but you covered all of it too. I have a 2016 F.R. Rockwell Signature 8289WS 5th Wheel, and was very unsure of how the valve worked. It has the underbelly covering, so I couldn't see the valve to begin with. Online I saw the external gate which this one had, I am going to get that too. But I don't like the idea of getting under the RV in dirt either.. It has a long pull rod out the side at the bottom, not exactly like the one in this video. So, I will have to investigate to find whether it has a cable, or direct as some show. But at least I have an idea of what to expect. And for that I am grateful for this video, and thank you. I just don't know what to search for to find the new valve. I will keep trying.
I would like to throw this in there.. I was using my tank flush feature on my 05 montana. I messed up and didn't get my tank valve open. and instead of coming out the roof like you mention at 4:30 it instead EXPLODED my grey tank (I had the black and grey tanks both open, but didn't have the valve at the hose connection open). Then I closed my grey tank, and immediately, the black tank exploded too! So I had to patch 2 tanks with steel mesh, a soldering iron, and abs glue made into a paste with abs shavings! Patch is holding strong 2 months later!
Hey. I spent 49 years in the construction business, which included plumbing, electrical and other aspects. You did a super job detailing the procedure and articulating the process. Sucess to you with your other endeavors.
Outstanding video. We are part time. At least once a month I use 4-6oz of Dawn dish soap after I’ve flushed. Add 4-5 gallons water. Drive to next location add lots of water. Dump. I do gray and black. When I winterize, I also do this and do a camera inspection of the inside of my tanks.
Great Explanation of a valve changeout. As an RV owner I would appreciate turning the valve over. If we needed to do a changeout of the cable only, the openings to get to the slide and adjustments are easier to get too. As I understand it makes no difference which way its installed.
Excellent video. I have watched all the other YT videos on this subject but yours was by far the best. Great tip on the plumber's grease too! I have the Bristol on my 2021 Jayco Eagle HT fifthwheel but NOWHERE could I find the part #, only the patent #. This made it very difficult to order another valve.
Is that an Olight headlamp? I would love to see a review. I bought a Baton 3 Pro based on your recommendation and I love that light. I could use a headlamp too
Ok. I'm sure you have done a video on this but I can't seem to find it. I have a dometic toilet apparently a series 300, in my 2020 wildwood x-lite. I am having an issue with formatted poo water getting in between the bowl and "pedestal" void. for better lack of knowledge. Of my toilet. How is this even possible and how other than replacing toilet can this be fixed? Do you have a email or some way to ask questions?
Why didn’t you lower the front of camper down so any waste or water would have leaned towards the front of camper, if it was on the back of tank? Great video thou 👍
Yeah... this. You can either tilt the camper forward or back, and some RVs allow for side to side adjustments with the hydraulic jacks. Locate the valve, see which way the tank drains, and tilt the camper body so the tank outlet drains back into the tank.
Excellent video. Very informative and helpful. Please consider doing a video on how to repair and/or replace the under belly cover.
Great video! New RV Tech here. I have been learning more from you than my Instructor. thank you again

As always, great video! I will never do this, but it is good information so that I can troubleshoot and help my dealership.
11:45a thank you young man your mission's are Blessing.

Your calmness and ease of explanation are spot on. Great job!

Excellent and thorough video. Unfortunately, my system is different enough that most does not apply to me.

Nicely done sir! Very informative as we may have a black tank valve that needs attention! Thanks!
Thanks!

Thanks for the video! Have my first valve to change tomorrow.
Good luck!
Good job !
Great and very informative. Love that kind of Video. I want to go to School to become a tech next year.
Go for it!
Great video. Very helpful.
Great video my man!! Shop music isn’t too bad either. 🤘
Thank you, very good explanation
Great content as usual. Thanks Don
Much appreciated
What is the extenstion called that you suggested wouldn't be a bad investment? It appears in the very first part of your video?

Just posted a review to TikTok

Never any fun to do.
