I had trouble in my last Westy with the tank also.  I removed all the appliances to get to the wall for some work.  When I replaced the tank, I got a small hose leak from the connection to the outside fill port at the water tank.  I went some time like that by only filling it to the edge of the fill connection.  That's OK if you are not going somewhere where places to fill up are scarce or you have no time to fix the problem right now.

What puzzles me about the water tank leak is that I can not see where it is leaking from thus the need to remove it. If I remove the bottom under the front hatch I do not see any water leaking from the hose connections but water will form up on the floor when it is filled to the green LED and stop leaking at about the yellow Led.
That said, I do not know if I have enough time before Synco Fest to get it all apart, repaired, and back together. I am going to have to think about this a bit before I rip it apart but I think it will have to come apart. I guess as Alistair said the cabinet covering the tank can be removed by removeing the bed and unbolting the sides? As Roseanne, Roseanne
