Question:

I have a 2003 Corsair Excella and need to replace the black valve, which I assume is 3. While doing this, I will also replace the gray valve is it 1 1/2? Thanks for your help.

Yes, gray waste valves are 1-1/2". If you're replacing just the gate valves for your double waste valve then you can unbolt them and slip in the # T1003VP for the black and # T1001VP for the gray and then bolt them back in place. I've attached a video below where you can see how to do this.

If you end up needing to replace the entire double waste valve then shoot me a few pictures from the other side so I can see the direction of the piping to find the correct replacement.
