Actually you will put the antifreez into the side of the tank, which is the suction side of the pump so that you pump pumps it to the fixtures.

Okay let me make sure I do understand. One side of the pump goes straight to the fresh water tank. The other side is the one that goes to all the pipes. I will remove the hose that is connected to the side of the fresh water tank, and installed my kit, right?

yes, the suction side. I am not sure what your "kit" is. The easiest is to un-attach the hose on the suction side of the pump (goes to your tank) Attach a tube about 18 inches long to where you just removed the tank tube. Put the end of this tube into you anti freeze jug (NON TOXIC Antifreeze), open a spigot to get pump to pum...when you see pink, close spigot. do same for shower, toilet, bathroom faucet...whatever. should use about 2 gallons of anti freeze. Pour a lil down each sink trap.

Good I think finally i will be ready to save at $115.00 from Camping World or the other RV dealers in my area. I can not understand why the do charge so much to winterize the RV. It only takes 15 minutes when you know what you are doing. In the other hand, they want to charge me $50.00 plus parts to replace oil/filter for my Onan micro-quiet 4000 generator. I will need to read the manual to see how easy/difficult is to do change the oil/filter for the generator.

I have to assume that the o ring & white button thingie you're describing is an anti-syphon rig, which doesn't have to be messed with at all.
The suburban uses a big socket, the plug is metal and has a different coloured centre circle, which is the anode (meant to protect the tank from corrosion) Not sure of the size... my atwood takes a 7/8" and its certanly bigger than that.
