Hello, I have a 1984 30+. I just discovered my main water tank was crack along the bottom edge and leaking. IT looks like a Ronco B112, 30 gallon. I also have an aux water tank in the bow. Both tanks have valves to feed the water pump.
I have a few questions and need advice please.
1. I removed the ronco water tank and found the crack along the bottom edge. Can it be repaired by plastic welding? I found that the B-112 was standard on the 30+ plumbing diagram. I am assuming it is the original. It looks like it is still sold by Ronco, but I anticipate it will be a few weeks to have it delivered.
2. Regarding my aux water tank. I am assuming that I can use it until my new tank ( or repair ) is completed. The one thing that concern me it that I cannot locate the outside air vent. The diagram shows it on the starboard side but I don't have one there. I don't even know where the main air vent hose is either. My fear is that I create more issues because the aux tank is not vented properly either. I think I remember seeing something on the transom. I know I have a black water tank vent on the port side near the head.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Daniel
