Making a flush tank ?
I'm in a 95 Prowler. No way of flushing out our black tank.
I was wondering, can I join the gray tank to the high end of the black tank and then be able to flush out the black tank ?

no.
Put a wand down the toilet. They make special sprayer wands that spray in all direction, pull a hose through the window, open the toilet, stick the wand down there and turn it on

In that case, you flush from the valve end.. there are many flushes that attach to the sewer side

It works, I do it by connecting the sprayer to my bathroom sink. It works great. I had a blocked tank and it cleaned it out.

Ditto. I had to remove my flusher from the tank and it is an easy thing to install. Mine is installed about half way up the back 6 inch high wall of the black tank. I ran water thru it before I installed it, and it sprayed pretty fine, so I bored out some of the holes. Now it blows pretty hard. It has no rotator, I had thought it did. Nope, it just sprays out about 18 holes in th ed of a 1 inch pvc plug. Gotta have a check valve and a vacuum break. The check valve keeps the sting from coming out the vacuum break. EZ2do.

Has anyone mentioned Swan Industries that manufactures a great flusher system?

The state park by my house where I typically dump after a weekend trip does not have a hose fitting on the end of the rinse out hose. I find this is common at many public dump stations, they don’t want people filling up their tanks and flushing them. My solution has been to carry a 5 gallon bucket. When the black tank is done draining I just dump a few bucket loads of water down the toilet at a high rate of pour and it flushes the tank as well as my flushing system, maybe better. I have a clear elbow on the waste hose and when it runs clear, I’m done.

I have another valve at the sewer hook up. So I have 3 valves. Black, Gray and main at hook up. I drain black. Then close the main, leave black open and open gray. This dumps gray into black till they equalize. I then dump black again.
The on board tank rinse is a waste, best to stick a wand in the crapper. But my way above works pretty good for a few years now and I don't waste water.
