I know with the new dash that is coming out, there is a gauge on how much water is in the bags. Not sure how accurate that will be since there is not a float in the bag to measure the water. If it is on a timer, can the timer be adjusted oif you put in bigger bags?
ed-correct me if I'm wrong but it's a timer system. mastercraft has been doing the same thing in the x-2's and I remember a lot of debate on how to change the timing. need to set the timers based on bigger bags, which I would assume ed has since he's running the larger rear setup. bags drain out the same place they enter from, since there's only one pump per bag.
I am real curious how the dash monitors bag filling as well. easy in hard tanks. maybe something that measures the amount of water past a point? I would think there's too many variables in filling based on timing a bag full?
our dealer doesn't have a new supra yet. been watching.
I have the g III jabsco and the timers are easily adjusted, you just have to hit the switch again for another 30 secs of run time, the only true way to know when the bag is full is when water starts coming out the vent hose, pretty easy, imo. i know everyone is hung up on getting there bags filled in under 3 mins, it usu takes a good 5- 10 mins to get the motor warmed up properly and time to get suited up ready to go.....never really had an issue with over twiddling of my thumbs waiting for the bags to fill.....i guess if it took 20 mins to fill then we'd be really have an issue
didn't realize they have a vent hose. good feature for figuring out if they are full. can't you set the timers for a little longer so you don't have to hit it again, then if you lose a little, oh well?
it takes the factory system I have currently around 15-18 minutes to fill the 750 in the rear locker. sucks.
yes you can reprogram the run time on the switches and pressing the switch again gives you an additional minute of run timeQuote:

Thats awesome, never could get into running myself. I have next week off, and my wife was asking me what i thought about going down to florida for a few days.....so it would be like between the 22 and 27 if we go, its last minute thing so no worries, when she mentioned it i mapquested clermont and saw how close you are to Orlando. Hey whats the weather like down there suppose to be?
Warm and sunny. Except for about 12 days a year.
I'd never think that of you Ed you've been a member for a long time and one would expect that of a 7 yr member. Now if you were posting 5 x a day on average then there may be some concern....... :)Quote:
