Hi Rolmops..<br /><br />What does it look like?<br /><br />I have one here from an old evinrude,, it looks like a circle of tin bend in a U shape with springs at each end and another piece of tin at the other end of the springs that clamps onto the back of the cavitation plate..<br /><br />Anyway, if thats the one, they sell them new at my local boat place.. about 8 bucks.. have you checked the usual places??<br /><br />regards<br /><br />Frank

Yes Frank that's the one. Very easily available down under.<br />Trying to get one in upstate NY is a bit more of a problem.Mine went bad last summer and I've been using a barrel ever since.I am tempted to send for one from Australia. Maybe you have a local website that offers it?<br />Thanks for your answer.

I could use the same hose adapter, so I'm bumping this back up hoping we both get a reply

rolmops<br />What you are looking for is a Tempo Flushet.<br />They are model specific any not a "one fits all", and can cost up to $30 and more for some models. Your local dealer has all the available models in stock or one or two days away by special order. For the antique models, I doubt many dealers stock them but can get them. You will need to know make and model.<br />Backfire
