Hi Mike, I''m Jon from Holland, The Netherlands. I've a 1978 COCA COLA GMC motorhome of which we're are very proud of. Man thanks a lot for sharing this DIRTY JOB, but somebody has to do it. Just perfect being not a mechanic or plummer and doing it all on the floor of your doorstep. WOW MAN Great Job. Keep on going man
Sweet rig. I would think about shielding the bottom of the black tank with a sheet of steel or aluminum between the support brackets. It'll just take one rock or piece of road debris to undo all of your hard work. It'll also help support the center of the tank from sagging when it's full. Sagging leads to fatigue, which leads to eventual failure from stress points at seams, thin spots, corners and joints in the plastic. They don't make them like they used to... trust me on that one. Great job with the install and the video. Thanks for sharing!
Awesome and thanks! Glad it was helpful - good luck with doing it yourself. It's not too hard - just take your time. Most importantly, make sure your connections are seated before gluing them with ABS cement.
Black tank replacement is next on my list. Do you have a part number for that level sensor? I'm having trouble finding an analog sender like that to work with my original system monitor in my '77 Kingsley.
So your camper does not have a gray water tank? Everything from the shower to the sink go into the black water tank? That’s not typical in your traditional RV
Wow beautiful condition outside lovely GMC motor home never seen an older coach in great condition.

Great Video, and a nice looking coach.
thats a Golby water tank, for reference
I purchased it from Jim Bounds at the Co-Op. But I do believe they drop ship.

That is correct - most GMC's are built that way
My question can I by pass the black tank and connect to my home drain pipe so I can use my toilet with out worry clean my B. Tank
I you doing good job I have a question for you my name is Harry
where di you buy your new parts from? i am considering a GMC Birchaven but am concerned about replacement parts.
I’m surprised that there are no disconnect locations on the ABS . I know they don’t have to follow any codes so why not !!
