I just had to rebuild the holding tank overboard pump
In Response To: Filled Holding Tank with Water ()

out pump. The diaphragm started to get a little pin hole in it. I really thought it was going to be the job from hell but it turned out to be a snap. I had visions of the hoses not coming off, the threads stripped, the raw sewage all over the place but it was not to be. The hoses came right off, the screws came right out and the pump was located high enough that no sewage leaked back. Halla flippen luya! I had the entire project done in under three hours and only three sets of rubber gloves and a quarter roll of paper towels used. I don't care how well the job went, work like that really sucks!
