I had a place winterize my trailer when they were fixing some other items. I took care of de-winterizing it but the front tank that I use for fresh water to for my horses (there's a faucet on the front of my trailer near the jack) now won't hold water (it's draining right back out from underneath). I assume there was a plug or something but I cannot find it and have no clue what it would look like. The place that did it isn't close by so I really don't want to have to haul back when it's probably something stupid I am overlooking. I don't mind ordering a plug but am not sure what to search for or what that tank would be called.

There is a plug. It should stick straight down and directly under the tank. Probably a gray or white plug that may be just loose or not there. The plug should be female and the pipe coming down should be male. Here are some images that may help so you know what you are looking for. (hope links work)

Most of the time its not even a plug, its a simple drain/ball valve. All you have to do is close it. you will see it as soon as you get under the trailer. 3 second fix.

this is correct.
look under what ever your tank is under. I have also seen the valve be under the step to get up into the nose.

One thing I would think would be a major factor is who put the LQ in. Everyone does it differently and the LQ in a particular brand of trailer may not have been put in by the same person.

Thanks guys! I will crawl under there this afternoon and see what I can find. Outlaw did the living quarters but I couldn't locate anything about that particular tank in the manual.
