Ok - I'm not joking. As in, I've had the boat 2 years now and haven't yet replaced the joker valve (who knows when the PO last replaced it). I've read Peggy's book (thanks "Head Mistress") and see that I need to get on this before it becomes an issue.
I've got a Cataline 309 with Thetford Headmate (model 37001 ?) - see pic of label. I can't seem to find specific joker valves for this.
Do I have to find a specific valve from Thetford? or do others work fine (or better)?
I see full maint kits...but when I look at places like Defender, I don't see ones for that model. Is that model known by something else - more generic?
Would it be a good idea to do a full pump maint instead of just a joker as I don't know the precise history anyway?
any help would be appreciated....
