Re: [VAC] Thetford repair



Phil,
Dont worry about the plugs, they are corroded and expanded. Just push them
back into the bowl. I was not successful in finding an exact replacement so
I just used plastic coated expansion bolts. these 5 bolts just hold the
metal mounting plate on the porcelain bowl.
The most important thing to remember is sealing the gasket between the
porcelain bowl and the thetford valve. be sure to use some silicon sealer to
adhere the gasket to the bowl. If you don't the toilet will leak and you
wont like that after all the work you have to do to get the toilet in and
out of that tight space.

Happy Toilet Bowling
