    Pump outs made easy

    Every time I went to pump out I would have to turn the motor on at least three times to get both tanks completely empty. A friend of mine showed me this adapter that cut my pump out time more than half. I can now pumped up both tanks without turning the pump motor back on. It creates a complete vacuum and doesn’t allow air into the system which slows the pump down. Give it a try you’ll see what I mean. Sams carries these.

    This is just a standard fitting on which the pump out hose attaches to. It creates a tight seal so you don’t suck air

    Had one for years, wouldn’t waste time doing a pump out without it.
