Ray,
If you use a garden hose to fill your tank, the plastic smell and taste
could be coming from the hose. RV supply stores sell hoses meant for
drinking water that don't have this problem. Just another idea.

I have run several tankful (13 gallons US) of water through a
new tank and have tried a baby bottle sterilizing mix (Milton) to
remove
the strong plastic smell and taste from the water but it is still
there..... so our drinking water is carried in an old 5 gl container
till it dissipates... has anyone had similar experience and know of a
quick fix?
I have made rain gutters from modified plastic curtain track
attached with double sided tape, The waterfall from the pop top still
runs in under the small VW windshield....*#@*... so the trick is to
keep
the window shut or make larger gutters ! Back to the drawing
board....
