The inlet bungs on my black tank (73 23ft) were cracked and the welds failing. The tank top at the inlets had small cracks.
The suggested remedies ranged from new tank to glue on patches.
The final choice was plastic welding at a local tank fabricator.

Here's the finished job -- a new plate complete with threaded bungs welded over the old inlet locations.

Thank you to all for the suggestions. Helped to have the different experiences and perspectives.

New question -- any one have photos of a macerator install on a 23 ft GM finished coach like my 73?
