Hey guys, it's Jake here with etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at, go over a few details and we're gonna show you how to replace the LaSalle Bristol RV waste valve. Now, there's a couple of different reasons of why you would need to replace your RV waste valve. The most common being that it's leaking or it's not working properly. One of the biggest reasons of why it leaks is because the pipe or the valve itself has a crack in it. These valves are very, very finicky.
If you pull too hard on 'em, you can break the handles off. The inside flap that actually closes off the pipe is just plastic. So if you pull too hard during the winter you may risk breaking it 'cause it's more brittle. Another reason is that the way that the valve is positioned if you close it premature, say you pull the wrong valve and you try to close it premature, the valve actually being or the tank actually being emptied what can happen is there's a slot that that valve shuts off into. What you can do is you can take some tissue paper and end up shoving it up into that slot.
This is gonna cause that valve to never properly close again. 'Cause what'll happen is that tissue paper will turn rock solid and you'll never be able to close the valve all the way. So if you're having trouble getting your valve closed all the way up, that's probably your issue. So let's go ahead and jump into the insulation. Most of your valves are gonna have four bolts and nut combos on the four corners and it's most likely going to be a 11 millimeter bolt and nut.
So we'll just remove these. It is a good idea to drain your tanks if you have the ability drain your tanks and leave them open the night before. That way your pipes have a little bit of time to dry out so that when you pull this valve out you don't have anything leaking on you. Now depending on your setup, this may differ for you. For us, this pipe goes straight back.
So we will have a little bit of wiggle room here. We just replaced this valve and there's not much room to move at all. So I actually had a friend of mine hold this pipe back while I slid the new valve up into place. We pull the valve out. This is what we're talking about. This is just the gray water. So no worries. That is the groove I was referring to that you can get stuff suck in. We're replacing these because they're just too hard to pull. But this is what I was talking about that you could smash stuff up in there and you'll never get it out. So pull this out. Make sure you take your seals out. If they're been on there for a while, they're probably stuck. They'll look like this and you'll have two of them and we'll pop the other one out. We can grab our new valve. Hey, notice our new valve is gonna be nice and smooth. There's nothing in the way. Our gaskets are gonna be pre pressed in here. Just make sure they stay in there when you're putting it up in place. But we can close it and we we'll pull back on our pipe here wide enough to go around our gaskets, slide it over, make sure both of the fittings are getting lined up there. Nothing. You just wanna make sure that your gaskets aren't folding over themselves and you should. A pretty good judge of that is that this if you have this style of bracket it won't go up flush to it. It may be cocked like that a little bit but you can see here it's nice and flush. So we'll take your new hardware and put it in place. Now you wanna make sure you're putting even pressure on these. So give each one a few turns and then go back around and snug everything up and we'll go ahead and test it out. It works just as it should, If it seems a little tight at first, that is just because the rubber is new on the inside. That's actually a good thing that it means you have a good tight seal as you get, you know, more use out of it and some more liquid comes on through here it will get a little looser. Well guys, hopefully this video helped you to install your new RV waste valve.
