I believe that special facilities are required to flush the tanks - it is
not simply a matter of opening all the taps to let the water run out at the
same time as putting a hose in. (I was just as ropeable and did a lot of
jumping up and down and screaming, until I was shown the procedure at Meeks
Road).
