[VAC] Re: black water tank




Dustin,
    I have a 53 Cruiser. It was originaly NOT equiped with a black water
tank. The original owners had an obviously factory installed black tank.
Think about it for a minute....Do you really want to hook up a blue tank
every time you want to use the can? I like having my own "restroom" and not
needing to wait for the next rest stop or go around looking for a place to
get releif. Just pull to the side of the road and go. Needing to hook up the
blue tank every time could lead to doing the P-P dance before using the
throne. Adding a black tank is worth it.  
  The factory tank was installed by removing the throne , cutting the
nessecery size opening  in the floor for the plumbing (tank empty valve) then
installing the throne on top of the tank. This is a simple run down of the
black tank install a little more is involved but over all it is not a big
prodject.
