I'm pretty handy, just terribly ignorant about RV's still.
I appreciate all the help.
We all had to learn someplace, Hard knocks U.
Yeah, pulling damaged holding tanks might be a chore indeed.

There are services that will:
1) Run a water-proof lighted fiber optic camera in creepy places to inspect.
2) Clean the tank inside with a Rube Goldberg contraption, that has a clear fitting with a bellows around a steerable hydro-jet (pressure washer) that uses different nozzles depending on situation(s). It's hooked up to a honey wagon vacuum trailer. Around these parts he gets $225> for most of the wonderful services. The Jack Hammer is extra.
He does this almost routinely on / for units that have been parked in resorts idle, for extended periods and not maintained properly. Seems owners get lazy, or loose interest, poor health. Dooky happens.
