Filled up the fresh water tank for the first time in hopes of cleaning
out the system before attending a recent rally. While the pump come on,
it spits more air than water so I was just content to use the campground
water, except for drinking.
Now I'm trying to drain the tank and it doesn't want to drain. I read
the instructions in the manual, removed the fill cap, opened the
drainvalve nearest the tank outlet pipe, and the drain further down the
pressure line...drip, drip drip. Tried turning on the pump.....drip,
drip , drip. Not impressed with 40 gallons to go, I unhooked the water
line coming out of the tank (just past some funny looking device on that
line) and nothing.

Something is preventing that water from leaving the tank. Any suggestions?
