Black water valve

Our black water valve was leaking, took it off and found it was cracked in 4 places. Replaced it and it still drips. Any ideas? Chatty Kathy

When you replaced the valve, did you use some silicon lubricant on the gaskets/"O" rings? If not, the gaskets can end up displaced when you assemble the new valve body in place. The lube also makes them last longer.
