How can one find out if there are baffles in either the grey or blackwater
tanks? I think my previous RV had them but the new one doesn't. I can hear
sloshing when I stop and go. Can I add baffles to stop the sloshing?

Thanks and God bless,

I dont think you would want baffles in the tank. They would prevent a
good dump.

I'm actually baffled by the question. Why would there ever be baffles
in one's black tank? The sound of sloshing is much less troublesome
than the failure to dump because of baffles in the goddam tank!

No, you can't.

And if you did have baffles it would be a disaster eventually because
holding tanks _need_ sloshing.
