2012 Keystone Avalanche

My black water pull-cable takes two hands and leverage to get it open. Any suggestions on what I should try to make it easier to open would be very much appreciated.

Thanks

Welcome to the forum!!

We have had some success using PbBlaster. Open the valve and spray the exposed rod/cable. Cycle it a few times and repeat.
Do this every time you dump for a few times and if it doesn’t work, replacement is probably needed. If it’s under warranty, I would schedule a day to drop it off for service.
