Subject:High sink water pressure
From:John Graham

I love my Westy for everyday driving; I think it's just a cool vehicle.  We
used to go camping more when our son was young, but you know how life can
get away from you.  Well, we went camping this past weekend for the first
time in over a year and after coming back, I'm making lists of things that I
want to have 'on-board' for the next time or things to add or change.

One of the things that I wish I could change is the rate at which water
spews out of the sink faucet just on the pressure from the little pump in
the water tank.  It splatters all over if you're not filling a pot or some
container.  I understand that this is a function of little faucet opening
and the pump pressure.  Has anyone modified their sink faucets is someway to
lessen this?  I've seen pictures of what I think were Eurovan camper faucets
that seemed to be sort of a pull out on a hose.  Are things like that
available for retrofit to a Vanagon Westy?  I don't think I've ever needed
or wanted to hook up to 'city water' so if I had to give up that feature, I
wouldn't care.

TIA
