Hi, Bernie & Tammy, Have you tried using the wand that you attach to a hose and use from the inside? We can identify with your problem because we had even more severe problems with our piece of ___ Cougar lemon before the dealer finally took it back. They changed out the black water tank and dump valves 3 times and we still had problems. We were SHOCKED when we first saw what the waste tank looked like after they had removed it. How can they possibly expect anything that is only 4-6 inches deep to let loose of waste, paper or anything else?!!! It just piles up at the entry to the tank. We were forced to use a port-a-potty for several weeks because of all the problems we had. We had an old Lance cabover with a REAL WASTE TANK - ie a big deep one - and put everything imaginable down there and never had a problem. So, the fool idiot who designed this mess should be required to spend at least 2 weeks living in an RV in freezing weather in Alaska! Only then would they possibly have any chance of maybe designing something that will work properly.
We hope to make the trip to Seward sometime in the next month or so and hope to be able to visit with you. Good luck with your Monty and we hope things stop being so "crappy" for you.
We love cold weather too!
Jim and Pam in Palmer
