Low Point Drains Leaking!

[iMaki]

First camping trip with new MicroLite 25BDS. Low point drains won't stop leaking like a sieve. Black, ribbed caps are tight. Nothing in the worthless manual. I'm ready to head home. Anyone have same problem on initial fill with pump turned on?

Propably the gasket missing.....Pull the cap off and insert a regular garden hose washer

Here is what they look like.

Do you have saran wrap? Ball up a piece and place it inside the cap and tighten.

If there's a leak, should also show up on city water

I used pipe thread tape to fix mine until I could get the washers needed for the bottom of the caps.

Yes the washers must have gotten lost or something. Mine came with the washers inside the caps.

I used an O ring type washer and never leaked a drop again.Got the size to fit snug in cap. Cheap good fix.

Turns out the caps were put on too tight, and the gaskets were damaged. All is well now. Thanks for the help everyone!

Road grit got in my caps and eventually made them leak. Happy day when I cut them off and crimped on 2 ball valves.

I just screwed on my ball valves to the existing threaded male ends.

Was yours a different setup?

Some stick down pretty far....
