[Public-list] Toilet Problems

[Brian and Elaine Timmins]

Are you saying that the water is coming in through the water inlet, through
the pump, and then to the bowl?
If yes, I had the same situation on #497. I completely stopped it by adding
a vented loop in the 3/4" hose between the pump and the fitting on the back
of the bowl.

problem gone for good.
Regards,
Brian  ex#497

> Last weekend while sailing my toilet overflowed - with dirty water - not
the nice clean lake water.  When I pump/flushed it out it would start to
refill again and in about 10 mins it would be getting close to the rim
again. I shut off the valve to the tank which seemed to work.  I
experimented a bit and discovered that it would slowing fill with lake water
if I left the flush lever in the up position.  While at dock - the toilet
was fine and has been fine since.  Where should I start?
