Does anyone know the part number for the tank valve? I'd like to order a spare as I broke half of the plastic handle off of mine. I think it would be a good idea to have a backup.

Also, I have read here that some people use pinesol in their black tank. How much are you using?

I replaced my black tank valve with this valve from Camping World. Cost was $14.99.

We use just a splash of PineSol in the black tank to keep odors down if it's only going to be a few days before we dump the tanks.
