Fuel Tank Repair with a Bladder or Liner

Postby David Jones » March 20th, 2022, 5:09 pm

Good Afternoon Everyone.
I have a question about Fuel Tank replacement for a 1987 4207. I already know all the difficulty with the saddle tanks and engine pulling etc. There is a great form on this in here. But, I was just wondering if anyone has used or know of someone that has used a bladder, or maybe a bladder insert or something like this to do the repair. If so if anyone has a link to info or where to buy or research such a thing. Thanks in advance!!!!

I think the trouble with this idea is that you will find internal baffles in the tank and not just a big empty gas rectangle tank.
