For those of you looking for an alternative to the original, sometimes finicky (my replacement used cap wouldn't thread on) Water tank spout cap: This is my fix for the water tank drain cap that you might have missing/leaking: I bought a $15 PVC tap from the Home Builder Supply store along with a fitting that almost goes right over the downspout of the tank. (The fitting screws onto the tap) I had to lightly sand the Polyethylene tank spout so that the fitting & tap would fit onto it then epoxied it on. It has worked slick ever since (been on there since winter and have filled the tank several times with no sign of leakage). Some of you have seen this before but for those that haven't... http://s1003.photobucket.com/albums/af155/onsight2003/? action=view¤t=DSCN6762.jpg Trevor Reynolds Airdrie, AB, Canada, '91 GL 2Wheel drive, AT, Westy "SEN". http://westfalia-91restore.blogspot.com/
