After a good frigde day I started to work on the fresh water system in DT, the PO did never use it and had taken out the water tank due to the normal leaks around the water level sensor.
So I got the sensor and leaks on the water tank repaird and installed it, hooked up the original water pump and filled the tank half way up.
The pump was working and I started to bleed the system, after a couple of minutes i found four water leaks, one on the tube going to the toilet and three under the counter top ( not bad at all Big green had nine, why do not people drain the system before the winter comes ? ) all of them was on the cold water and pretty easy to get axcess to, and yes both faucets where leaking due to dried up gaskets, no big deal and an easy fix.
Then I turned the water heater on, it is working but it started to drip and it looks like it has been dripping for several years as I found some news papers from 1976 that was used to catch the water from it..
Anyways are the water heater something that I should try to repair ? the leak is internal and I have not removed it from the coach yet but I will guess that the leak is in the coil some where.
