[a/s] Questions on our "new" '91 Limited.



On the '91 34 ft Limited we bought a month ago, There doesn't appear to be
a drain valve to empty the fresh water tank. Maybe I am just looking in the
wrong place. On our old '89 29 ft Excella, there was a petcock outside
right between the wheels on the road side. I see no petcock or valve of any
kind on this Limited. Any ideas?

Also, I have a hose connection for flushing the black water tank. Is this
just a simple water pipe leading into the black tank - does it just dump
water in to the tank, or what? I think there is some kind of flushing
gadget on the 29 Excella also, and I don't understand it either. Never used
it.

Lastly, it has electric stabilizer jacks (which I absolutely LOVE). How do
I control the amount of lift on the rear ones? I can barely hear them crank
down (the control switches are at the front). I am afraid I will overstress
something by applying too much lift. Those of you with these jacks - how do
you do it?
