By way of an update, Duncan (damondunc) sent me a Cyclone vent sail, which I've just fitted. There was no vent smell from the original cap - and even after I removed the cap - but after I fitted the fluted swivel vent, I immediately whiffed what I would expect to whiff. It was still venting away nicely after I finished sealing it, and there was only a very light breeze too.
Very encouraged already (and the BioMagic is ordered). Thanks everyone! What a great community this is.
Thetford produce a grey water tank freshener that you're supposed to add regularly. I know because I bought some today to deal with just the same problem. That smell is putrid!
Flushing the tank out with fresh water every time would add an hour to a water change every three days - not ideal when you're on the move and want to make progress.
We noticed it was worse when the vehicle was standing still for 30 hours being repaired - quite embarassing when we got back in - the Italian mechanics must have thought the English a filthy bunch after that!

Just for those who have the smaller grey water tanks who might follow the thread, we got rid of a niffy smell from our (70ltr) tank using Milton steralising tablets dissolved in a bucket of water, then pour down sink, basin and shower 20 minute drive then empty out. Worked a treat.
Hope you get yours resolved Asprn.
regards Rob.
I do this every couple of months. After sterilising the freshwater tanks with chlorine tablets to 25ppm I then flush it through to the waste tanks (via the cold taps only!) and leave for a couple of hours then wash out. Only ever had the bad eggs smell once but not since I do the above. It wasn't through boiling eggs by the way!
