Black Tank removal

I have a 2000 Georgie Boy Pursuit 37 foot Class A. I am needing some help with the black tank removal. I cant find anything anywhere to even get me started. Any ideals or help would be great. RV places want around 800-1000 to do it. Should I let them???

Hello and We are glad to have you join us here and we look forward to reading of your adventures and experiences. I am sure you will enjoy our website and forums. Good luck, stay safe and keep us posted.
Follow the 3" black tank dump valve (larger valve) plumbing back to the tank removing any access panels as you go. Once you find the tank location check the curbside straight across from tank end on roadside and see it there is any access panels to the tank. This may give you the direction the tank must come out. Don't forget about the plumbing coming down. You may have to pull the toilet and floor flange for tank removal.

When looking at videos of what procedures take place when some of these coaches are put together (looks like the coach is build around the tanks in many cases) that price seems pretty reasonable in most regards.


Why are you removing the black tank? Again, the only thing I could imagine such a procedure is a split or broken tank that has to be completely replaced
