Sounds like you may have blockage, or the valve is not really coming open.....how long was the coach sitting before you purchased it? I wonder if the tanks had been properly dumped before it sat for sale.

This is what the air valves look like. The rubber seal may have come out of the valve gate and is blocking the drain hole.

Okay if the valve is working properly, then there must be something blocking the outlet.

Just spoke with Paul and it sounds like his gray water bypass valve might be closed.
