Bladder

[Ajon]

For those of you running fuel bladder, how are you transferring fuel? Anybody run the motors off the bladder?

Hi I'm running my Marlin, F300's off of a 50gal bladder. When the bladder is done I switch the 4-way valve to main. Then I disconnect the hoses, pack up the bladder and stow it at the walk around.

That is what I was thinking. Where did you get the manifold at?

Are you using the bladder for more fuel range or are you having built in tank issues?

I've thought about doing the same thing.
You could get away with just one 4-way valve/hose/connectors. Just run one of the motors on the bladder...

I like to drain the bladder as quick as possible so I can wrap it up, stow it so its out of the way.

Just replaced the two 3-way valves with 4-way and added male quick disconnects to the vales.

Thanks. Was just checking. Guess the bladder is easier to store when empty than a bunch off gas jugs.
