Folks, I have a 2000 Magna with a blackwater flush problem. Saw a thread on this awhile ago but can't connect to my issue. The system used to work fine, but over time flush volume has decreased till now there is none at all. I've got 60psi water pressure and no flow. Tried introducing soap solution, but even the couple of ounces I can get in the fitting does not go down. There's a 90 degree bend in there about five or six inches which precludes rodding out. This is a useful system if I could get it up and running again. Any ideas?
Also while I'm on here. Does anyone know if there any service available for day/night shades in the Yuma area? I've got one dead one and others that could use adjusting. Thanks zillions folks.

Just went thru this myself. The flush is small no longer then 2 inches long with holes in the side and front around .75. They were clogged so I took them out and drilled them out Ito .125

Mike,

I have the same problem and posted a few days ago, but didn't get any response on the forum. Kevin Waite and Fred Sage gave me a few pointers and I found the following:
1. The flush line on my 01 Magna goes directly to the galley under the spice rack cabinet and has a check valve mounted on the wall. The check valve is OK and I know my problem is the nozzle. The flush line then goes to the black tank spray nozzle.

2. CC in their wisdom mounted the spray nozzle between the black and gray tanks, a distance of about 3" apart. It is going to be a real challenge to remove the nozzle, so I'm going to wait until I get home from our Florida trip and deal with it in the garage.
Hope you have success with yours..

Tom

If the nozzle is too hard to access, I would put in a new one, all drilled out.
