I went out yesterday and I was going to fill the diesel and my
regular gas tank and ran into a problem?

My bird is 33 foot long and it has a Diesel engine and a gas
generator and there for I have two tanks.

I filled the diesel tank up but when I went to fill the gas tank up I
could not get the pump hose into the proper location to fill up the
tank. I have a lockable door that opens and the fill pipe is located
inside and below that door. I cannot get the nozzel to fit on the
pipe tight and part of the fuel that I was pumping just ran over the
side of the gas tank pipe opening. I think this is because of the new
type of nozzels used today have a rubber seat on them and I can not
get this into the location of this fill pipe. Anybody have this same
problem?

I can always fill by using a 5 gallon fuel can but does anyone know
of another way? Jon
