gene jo Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Just returned from Vegas to San Diego and back trip. The 92 Dolphin ran just great though I've always got an ear out for new noises since the V6 has 105k on it (just had head gasket recall done at 98k). Coming across the desert at 105+ degrees there was considerable odor from the waste tank. We just use it for Number 1 body function (saves many a stop for wife), but the odor was quite apparent. After draining tank it went away. Doing some research about vent systems I found that the plain stack vent that I have does not do much for pulling vapors out of tank. I've ordered this Cyclone vent: http://www.rvpartscenter.com/ProductDetail.asp?PID=41101&SID=9&DID=54&CID=407 Has anyone had any experience with odors like this? If so, what have you done? How about the Cyclone thing.....hoping it works. Awaiting delivery from Amazon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allen Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 FYI. Here is a version with no moving parts and has a much lower profile: http://360productsno...a.com/site/home . They used to sell a retrofit version that was called a "Universal Lid" that would attach to a good existing vent, they stopped making this version because they had issues with people putting them on old sun beaten vents (i.e. cracking). I brought this version back in 2009, and it still works great! There are a couple videos on their website showing the issue and installation.
