Good news. After talking to our dealer a few times today, it was realized that valves are in a lot of different places. And thank you for all of your help. But I did take out belly pad screws until I did find the valve, and it was back there between slide and bumper. Our pull rod/handle was not through the frame, but only through the belly pad. I had thought the hole in pad was a tear and duct taped it. And in closed position, pullrod was about 3" above pad, out of site. So, I pulled it out using a needle nose pliers, draining tank. All pink water ccame out, so it appears to have been ok during the winter. And dealer is sending us "T" handle and ext. rod. Threads on valve rod are ok. So, I'll put some blue loctite on the rod and handle connections and maybe secure it somehow so if it ever falls off again or something, we don't lose it. Dealer did get in touch with former owners in Florida just as I located valve, so we all were working together. Thank you all.
