Re: [A/S] 64 GT sewer fittings

I have been struggling with this for years and still have not found a 
satisfactory solution other than converting the sewer outlet to the present 
standard. Just because it says Thetford on it doesn't mean it will fit.   I 
haave a rather large collection of adaptors that I was told would fit!
 Another VAC member gave me some parts which kind of work ( the seal isn't 
real good, but since I only use it for grey water, it is OK.  I use a porta 
potty instead of the black water tank it I'm in the boonies.) I think it is 
the Thetford to Valterra adaptor.
The white plastic outlet from the back of the trailer has four "ramps" on it 
and the  adaptor has only two ell shaped tabs.  I can make it fit if I am 
very careful how I put it on.  I still have the original cast aluminum 
Airstream part that fits on and I can put a slinky on it if I warm the 
plastic and work real hard so I keep that for hooking up to a sewer in a 
park.  For traveling to seal the line, I put on the adaptor and then a 
Valterra cap. Sometimes it stays on  sometimes it doesn't but at worst there 
is just a little bit of grey water that escapes.  I also use the latter 
adaptor for using the blue waste water tank. Since there is a pan under where 
the adaptors fit, if it falls off, I can retreive it.
