We have a very similar stock of connectors as well Andy (not the one 2nd from right though - haven't found a need for that type so far)

Also need to have some large cable ties to keep the push-and-hold type taps open...



Saves aching hands on a slow fill

I used that on a French municiple, the tap spout was triangular and 90 degrees to the body, also for sink taps that have no length to the spout.

This type of affair

And if all that fails - this is a good alternative:-

Some "push and hold" taps only give a metered amount.

We were on a Stellplatz on the Mosselle, and the tap would only dispense a couple of litres at a time. I think this was to discourage tank filling.

I've been on the lookout for a velcro strap to replace the need for cable ties to operate these types of taps, ie, reusable time and time again.

is that funnel available to buy or did it come with the van ? regards hilary

looks like a bit of drainpipe actually am i right!

Hi Hilary

If you are referring to the elbow joint funnel thing - we bought it at a plumbers shop. Just measure your water opening - there are several different sizes & ours cost less than 2 euros so probably much cheaper in the UK

Suggestion: Use a pair of large-jaw mole-grips (they are very useful tool to keep in your MH toolkit anyway.

Thanks for the tip BGD.

With jaws big enough to the job, their weight might take me over the 5000Kgs GVW. :laugh:
