tank trick...

Simple way to stop water from shooting out of a tank while replacing a faulty valve. A "ball" of plastic bags blocks the outlet as the water pressure presses against it. When the old valve is removed, the remaining water in the outlet pipe pours out and is replaced with air. You can hear that air bubble up in the tank and see the stick move when I place the new valve in the outlet pipe. 74,80,34,0,C
