             Before I spend a bunch of money, I like your advice.
            The toilet in our MH is a Thetford Aqua-Magic IV. The bowl
fills with water when the toilet is not in use. I thought it was due to the

This is a question that seems to get asked a lot.  I've googled it, also
read a few tips in the archives, thought I'd ask it again though, with a
little more specific info...
We seem to be getting more black tank odor in our 2005 Winnebago Voyage than
