Jabsco Y-Valve Servicing On A Lavac Marine Toilet | Ep. 36 | Gasket Replacements and Calcium Removal
August 07, 2023 by Sailing Sea Dream of Clyde | Language: EN Play Time: 00:07:45 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
In this video, I go through the process of taking apart, cleaning, and replacing the gaskets (Part #45488-0000) in a Jabsco Y-Valve (Part #45490-1000). This Y-Valve is part of the Lavac marine toilet set-up on my 1979 Westerly Discus. A small amount of liquid had started leaking from the holding tank into the bowl of the head due to a worn gasket in the Y-Valve described here. Quite a lot calcium had built up within the valve, so I show some tactics for removing that, too. Hopefully this video is useful for folks needing to do this job themselves!
Here is the manual and schematic for the Y-valve: https://productimageserver.com/literature/ownersManual/31466OM.pdf
Here is a video from Jabsco that shows the inner workings of the Y-Valve a bit more clearly than in this video: https://www.xylem.com/en-us/support/video-library/jabsco—inside-a-45490-1000-y-valve/

Sailing Sea Dream of Clyde
Here you will find videos of a young(ish) folks sailing aboard a 1979 Westerly Discus sailboat around the BC Coast and beyond. I focus on making videos centered around the sailing aspects of my trips, showing folks around the nice places where I anchor, plus occasional bits of natural history, as well as local knowledge I have picked up over the years. No cheesy clickbait, commericalizition, or hyped-up/made-up drama here... Just sailing around the lovely west coast.
