Re: A54 holding tank drain seasock
Hi Soraya,

At the first sign the valve becomes sticky, we use vegetable oil to lube the valve. With the holding tank empty and the valve closed, remove the deck cap and pour about a 100ml of vegetable oil into the tank. Let it sit for a little while. Then, work the valve back and forth. This will last for a few months before it needs to be done again. (I am assuming the 54 has caps on the deck for pump-out like the 53) With best regards, Mark Skipper Sailing Vessel - Cream Puff - SM2K - #275 Currently cruising - Tahiti, French Polynesia www.creampuff.us
