Hi!
First time poster here...I have a 2006 SN 206, and the refuelling ports are too narrow for my jerry can's nozzle (I have a portable 30 gallon monster).
Any suggestions? (other than buying a big funnel)...
Thanks!

I use a siphon hose to transfer gas from my 6 gallon cans, fits in my 05' 206 no problem.
Picked it up from Bass Pro for about $8, I think Overton's carries them as well. It is a clear hose with a brass fitting on one end which has a marble in it, a few strokes in the can and the flow starts, a little slow but works great.
