Here a Leak

Auntie Violet has been fighting with a fresh water leak for a long time now. We thought we had it taken care of when we had a new water pump put in when we were in Chehalis. They had to special order it and we spent an extra day there waiting for it.

But, only a few days later, we once more noticed a drip. As we progressed on our trip, it seemed to come and go. After we got settled in at Eagle View RV Resort, we noticed it pretty much every day. The water pressure here is quite high and pretty soon we were noticing a puddle...

We got to the point where we were concerned enough to shut the water off at night and when we were gone. Unfortunately, neither of us is agile enough anymore to crawl underneath the coach to tighten whatever was loose. So last week Forry called Gene's Mobile Service, the fellow we had called last year to fix our electrical cord. He said he would be able to come out on Monday between ten and two.

After waiting, Forry called the office about 2:15 and was told he was running behind. Gene called about three and said he would be here in about half an hour. When he arrived, he crawled under and said he found a leaking back pressure valve. Of course, that's not a part he carries in his truck. So when he goes back into town, he'll order one. I guess he'll call tomorrow to let us know how long it will take to get it...
