Everytime I go to dump my rear bags the valves let the air out of the bags but continue to empty out any air I have in the tank and the lines. Is this supposed to happen? My front valves just empty my bags and not my tank or anything. Any help would be appreciated?

Well I only have a tank with two ports on it right now and my line T's after the port to run to the front valves and then one that runs to the rear and T's and the lines go to the valves which are linked together with the line running between them. (Hope you can figure that out!) Thanks bro!

Make sure that your lift valve is not being energized at the same time as the dump valve, if thats the case your feeding air from teh tank to the dump at the same time.

Where the line "runs between them", that sounds like the problem. The line should run to the fill valve, and dump valve be after that. If it's not the plumbing order, sounds like what's already been mentioned.. check to be sure the fill valve itself isnt sticking, or the switch sticking.

My profile has a pic of my trunk with the rear valves against the side. I dont have any on a site to post up.

Yea man, you just have it swapped around. Move that street T to the other side of your fill valve, hook the line coming from the tank to the fill valve. have the street t come off the outlet of the fill, with one port going to the bag line and the other with the dump.

on this pic, is that line off of the T the line to the bag or is that the line from the tank. that line needs to be TO the bag, and not FROM the tank
if you have them backwards, it will still air out because of the valve design. the valve diaphrams need backpressure to hold pressure. so when you open that dump valve, the tank pressure drops so the rear will drop with it
