Hello from upstate Indiana, 2005 Everest 294L pulled with an 08 Dodge Ram 2500 Cummins 6.7

Purchased Used 3 months ago. Had a leak underneath and didn't realize there was a separate tank for the kitchen sink! It would be nice if Keystone would give you a little more information on their units, I found nothing in the user's manual about it. So somewhere in that tank there is a leak.

Thanks for the welcome. Bought a used 2005 Everest from a couple so I didn't get much of an introduction as to how everything works. I thought there were only two waste tanks so I didn't empty the kitchen one and didn't realize there was a valve for it so ended up getting full and overflowing from somewhere? Tomorrow I will get back underneath again and take some of the under cover and see if I can find where its getting out. I'm 88 year's old so somewhat tough for me to crawl around underneath!

Welcome to the forum from SE Texas. I may be mistaken but, there may be a vent on the tank. If so this would be your leak therefore no need to tear it open. Good luck and keep us posted.

Most if not all holding tank are vented to the roof. It is possible the leak is at the top of the tank at that fitting, it could also be at the top where the sink drain is connected. Dropping the underbelly is probably the only way he is going to locate the leak.
