I had to patch my tank at the outlet due to the stress of tweaking/twisting to get the valve out. And it's started leaking again, so I'm going to have to replace my black tank!
Can't argue with your logic. That may be the way to go. I sort of "backed into" needing two cuts. I was able to get the passenger side (black tank) valve completed without any cuts, and once it was done, I didn't want to tempt fate. It's POSSIBLE that one cut will do it, but I'm not sure. We'll have to just wait for the next poor sucker to give it a try
