No. This tank came already pressurized and ready to go. It was just a matter of hooking it up to the system. No filling or draining required, no time at all.

The tank has a cap with a fill line on it. Fill the cap to the line 2 times. Be sure and fill the reservoir with water first and then add the cleaner.

Both. The tank filled noticeably slower after I installed it. I also could not install it without leaks. The rubber washers are not sized correctly.

I purchased the installation kit with the tank: it has the shutoff valve, backflow preventer, vents etc. The tank does not need a pump - it is gravity flow. There is a gauge installed on the tank. With the tank emptying into the orginal vehicle tank - the vehicle fuel gauge will show full until the aux tank is empty. Although it is a 40 gallon tank - based on the location of the fuel line there will be approx 4 gallons left in the bottom of the tank.

I usually fill it ( about 1.5- 2 gallons) if that. I'm running it at 80-100% load for about 12 hours and still have gas left over

Hi. Did you allow water to run through te filter for 10 mins? In the installation instructions it dates you should flush the filter for 10 mins prior to first use. I hope this helps.

Sounds like a common problem. You will have to measure the original tank and and be aware of the filler cap as to where it is located. Also take note of the screw locations for securing the tank in place. on this tank there are 4 screw locations. 2 on either narrow sides. Hopes this helps.

Steve, you have to take the tank out. There is a small cap you have to remove from the bottom to fill. I take mine to the sink and fill it...very simple.

No, you must remove the tank from base and fill from the bottom ( not that difficult )

Always drain it after using by taking in and out hoses off there is also a little valve look on the instructions. I also mounted mine on a 4x4 I wrap it with a blanket and then slid a plastic garbage can over unit and 4x4

I didn't use anything in mine, but I don't use anything when changing the filters either. I just let the tank fill up over the course of a few hours and then I allowed the whole thing to empty down the drain. I think I did this twice just to kind of rinse out the tank.

Quite while. I fill it and then walk away, so it takes 2 or 3 hours at least. If I go back to the kitchen I often top it up, it seems to work faster if it is full or near full and using the entire filter.

it works continuous, when it fills up it turns off, then you remove the tank in back and empty it sink or toilet. put the tank back and it comes back on. it will not splash when removing tank, you have to pull stopper out and drain out the water. i have empty mine every 2 or 3 days. it runs all the time. i have 2 of them and love 'em!!!!

Like the others have said, just open the gray valve. I drain the black tank first then flush line out using gray tank without the jet on. If pumping up hill you will need the jet. This system is slower but I won't go back too stinky slinky.

It replaces your existing chemicals. I usually add about two gallons of fresh water to my holding tanks after I dump. In the toilet I start to fill the bowl, add one scoop full of Happy Camper, fill the bowl, let it set about 15 minutes, then flush it - that gives an extra clean to my toilet bowl as well as starting it's process in the holding tank. For my shower, and sinks, I add about 1/2 scoop and rinse it down into those tanks.

If you setup and balance everything right probably less than 2 minutes or less however,you'll have some residual fluid leftover in the funnel hen done so find a pare container somewhere to put the funnel so it can drain while you wrap up\seal your containers. This residual leftover fuel may or may not filter and drain out as I've noticed when doing gasoline so, rather than wait I find a safe place\resealable container and dispose of it.
