Here's a reason we all need to know as much about our coaches as possible and to be involved in maintenance.

Below is a foto of a SOB drain system built by a 'reputatable' dealer in Florida.

Note that the 'tech' reduced the 4" black water drain down to a 2" with the expected results.

It cost the customer big bucks in Maine to have the system replaced to factory specs (not including the initial repair costs.

The SOB was constipated. It went from about over 12 square inches of pipe cross section to about 3.1.

I reviewed that and it is too complex. Lets just all agree it is the difference between a big turd and a little one.
