black tank flush

[Therrian]

I have a 2011 cougar 5th that we bought new and have enjoyed many miles of travel .Recently I have had to get to the tank flush sprayer only to discover eighteen feet of useless waterline from the checkvalve to the sprayer in the tank.The actual distance from the checkvalve to the sprayer is three feet straight down.If I rerun the line to remove the extra waterline will I create any problems in the system?

Hi, Therrian
18 feet of hose would create a pressure drop but I would guess only a couple of psi. Adding extra hose to reduce the pressure on the nozzle doesn't seem like a good solution. Usually you use an orifice in the line. Was it all coiled up neatly or stuffed in?
I think you just have to try it and see.
Let me know how it comes out.
