Nope but makes sense, shoukd be on inlet side.
Are you siphoning out of the jug or pouring into FW tank?

In the FW tank, but now I'm learning there's a siphon line and a bypass I could be using. I'll snag some more antifreeze tomorrow and will start with the screen (if there) and the siphon to see what works.
Screen on the pick up was my first thought. These are similar to the pump on an ATV sprayer.
So I learned two things. One, there is indeed a screen and it was full of shit.
Two, the whole bypass thing is a much better way to put the antifreeze in!

Winterized the camper today, I agree if your camper has a winterization hose it is super easy. I don't think the previous owner ever cleaned the screen on the pump. I hear that most of this junk is from assembly of the water system. Also I think it is time for a new anode rod.
Yep, construction debris clogged my AC drain pan & burnt out a thermocouple on the bunkhouse fridge, the current one has the 4" diameter cutout floating around in the blank tank. TP and the wrong angle will clog it when dumping....jackwagons lol!.
Glad it was an easy fix jesse, where was that screen at in the system?

Perfect day to send Old Man Winter packing.
Tire date code of 18' puts me at the life that I am comfortable with. I've seen and heard way to many horror stories to go another year on them. Anyone have a brand recommendation? It'll be a completely bearing clean out year also. Jesse, I think your camper is the same year as mine. Check the tire date code on your tires. 5 years is about the limit before you need to replace them. I think it was @5Cent that lost a tire on the way to Paint one year.
I was going to sell it this year but after the week we just had it has never been more apparent that tomorrow is never granted to everyone. We need to start using it more. Also with adult children living at home still, they can watch the dogs and take care of the chickens.

Mine is a 19' with 18' tires.Ours is a 2020 with the Goodyear Endurance tires. All is good for the year
Filled the water and got the air out of all the lines. Looks like the only thing that changed is the kitchen facet isn't opening all the way. Just a trickle. Maybe it'll work it's self out? HA, not with my luck! I'll deal with that another time. We are packed and ready to get after it. I just need to change the oil in my truck and I'll be on my way to our first trip this season.
