Water nipple behind right rear wheel

[gary j zingle]

"Can anyone tell me where the hose from the water
nipple behind the right rear wheel goes back to?
Every time I turn on the pump, I get pool from what
I think is probably some sort of pump pressure or
priming system.. Found copper nipple behind
wheel, but no evident line or hints as to where it
might once have gone to.."


On mine (wet side bath) when the rear sliding door
below the sink is opened one can reach through to
the valve that supplies water to the nipple behind
the passengers intermediate wheel.

It is not supposed to go anywhere further than
that. Is this the line you spoke of?

The purpose of this nipple and valve is to allow
for draining the water during winterizing.

Good luck

On our 73, there are two copper drain lines in that location,
one, is the water heater drain and the other is the drain for the
water heater safety/relief valve.
