    Ok, I am trying access the fuel tank

    I have what I think are all of the screws out to access the fuel tank. Lift up on the base that the seats set on and it seems to be screwed at the top as well but for the life of me I cannot find any. Anyone ever had to access their fuel tank before that knows if there are screws hidden somewhere I am not finding?

    RJ??????

    Open your rear compartments and look at the lip I believe that is where they will be!

    I had to remove the seat base on my 206 because the rigging strap supplied by the factory was screwed into accidently. I can tell you that there was 46 screws holding the deck down in three different sizes. The ones that fooled me were the ones located on the front side of the arm rests (if thats what you call it) and the ones located on the riser across the floor.

    my .02

    good luck

    T-Man I found those. And yeah there are ALL kinds of different sizes screws!!!!

    Chris, I'll check but I think my compartments are to far back to come into play.

    Jack.......on my 198 there were 3 screws on the sides of the seat base...kinda the armrest thing..like where the pass rods lay...and there were 4 on the back deck on that same piece...they were covered up pretty good with the carpet and i had to look for them pretty good...other than that that was all i had to do...took the seats out first of course but thats it
