Hi There. This is my second van conversion and I have bought a Thetford C200 CS toilet that has electric flush and an inbuilt water tank. Because of the design of my van there is nowhere for me to install the tank so I need to convert it so that it flushes from the van’s water tank.

Do you think it would work if i move the pump closer to the tank and then it will have to push the water instead of pull it??Hi Darren. Thanks for the

Any 12v pump with the correct connectors will do. I bet you could find a good one on eBay.I think you’ll have the same
