Can A Single Gate Valve Be Replaced Or Does The Whole Assembly Have To Be Replaced
Question:
Needing to replace the black tank release lever on my 2015 Forest River Georgetown 270S motorhome. Can you provide me with the correct part #? Don’t know if I can replace just the one lever or do I have to replace the whole assembly black/gray. Thanks

Helpful Expert Reply:
Each gate valve is held in place by four bolts that you can just unscrew and then swap the gate valve out with a new one like Valterra's Bladex # T1003VP and bolt back in place. If your gray gate valve ever needs to be replaced you can use part # T1001VPM. This method means no cutting and gluing in extra fittings for just a simple valve replacement. I've attached a video where I show you exactly how to do this.
