I have a used 28 gallon Fuel Safe Outlaw bladder that I am putting in a new Fuel Safe shell the same size. The bladder went right in the tank but I'm having trouble smoothing it out internally to fit the shell where I can get the pickup in right. Thought about putting air to it but don't want to damage the bladder. Anybody on here have any good tips for getting a bladder to conform to the inside of a tank?
I used the rounded end of a broom and pushed the tops and bottoms and sides out. Just be careful not to rip or tear it, which If you are using the rounded smooth edge should be ok. You can also stick your hands in there and push up to the shell. Once you put fuel in it, it will push against shell, tank. Good luck!
I used wd 40.i cut the heads off the appropriate size bolts and used them as studs leaving several inches of the bolts exposed.screw the bolts into the bladder and push the cut off bolts through the holes in the shell.pair of vice grips holds the stud up so you can start the correct bolts.spencer had a good idea with the broom handle also.cg
Fill the bladder with water once it’s in the shell. It will fit to the shape of the shell. After you dump all of the water out just let it sit upside down for a day or so to dry out.
