There should be a ball in there being pushed against the outlet by a
spring. Operative word here is "should"; some (like mine) dont. Mine leaks
like that as well. I was going to replace it but then I found out how much
they cost the trouble no longer seemed so urgent. Depending on what mood I
am in it may or may not bother me. When it does I stick a cloth in there.

Subject: water leaks from outlet when using westy sink pump

When I use the electric water pump for the sink in my 83.5 Westy water comes
out on the outside of the bus through the "city" water hookup. I'm assuming
there's a one-way valve somewhere in the system so this won't occur. Anyone
know where it is and how to replace it? Is it in the faucet itsel?.

I would appreciate leads before I begin tearing at the system.

TIA
