Hiya. New to the forum. I am just getting to know my 1966 Aristocrat Lo-Liner (15 ft). I am curious about the plumbing set up. As it is now, I have it hooked up to a hose that runs from a well on the property. The water from that well has always been perfectly adequate. But the water that is coming from the faucet is....soapy? It was very sudsy at first, has tapered off somewhat, but is still weird. Can anyone tell me what my water might be traveling through between the hose hookup on the port side and the faucet in the sink? It's not going into a tank first, right? I don't imagine it is traveling more than a few feet from hook up to sink basin. The friend I bought it from barely used it. It mostly sat in their driveway and they didn't do anything to it. So I don't have a deep provenance on the thing. I'll save my other questions about reservoir tank and water pump for a later date. Thanks for reading this far.

Welcome to the forum, Ebmolloy.
I suspect your Loliner could have been winterized. That would account for the sudsy water. Perhaps the hose had sat a while and also could be the culprit?
Flush the hose well until clear water runs. Also flush the trailer from inlet to faucet (not connected to the tank) for several minutes to clear the lines. Hopefully your tank was not filled with non toxic RV antifreeze (pink and bubbly) as it is difficult to flush a tank.
The tank normally connected to a hand pump by the sink.

Thanks, vikx. Yeah, I don't think I've even gotten acquainted with the reserve tank yet. So I guess I'll just spend some time and water rinsing that hose connected system. Cheers!
