Is this normal?
Just fitted my Baileys VTA dump valve myself and taken it for a test run
I've noticed 2 things
1. I've got a huge grin
2. I get an occasional bang
Now I'm not too worried about the first (but the wife might get suspicious
) but is the 2nd normal?
I've checked all the hoses are tight and have not come loose..

Yes, I just want to make sure I'm not damaging anything or I've not put it on wrong or something..
If a quick bang is normal (ask my wife
) then I'm happy
