    and this is why gentleman you buy with confidence from David and Mike. Remember the sticker price with David and Mike means parts back up should something go awry. Excellent customer service.

    The flap valve on the ballast tank will not seal. I have tried smoothing out the seating surface; I have tried recentering the flap over the hole; I have tried various pressures on the lever used to seal the air escape hole and nothing helps. I used RTV around the outer surface where the flapper valve housing is attached to tube. There was air escaping through a gap where the rubber flap is attached to the housing.

    Need help.
