Simple question of which I am getting a headache trying to remember the proper name.

What is the proper name for the water hose attachment to a OB or I/O everyone insists on calling "ear muffs" ??? Told you it was simple.

I always say “boy get the muffs”. He always knows where they’re at anyway.

Yes, yes Motor Flusher.

Thank you guys. I will tell our High School co-op student tomorrow to go get the motor flusher and see what he comes up with. I don't know what this 16 year old kid did that was so bad that they stuck him with our bunch for the rest of the school year. I'm the youngster in the shop at 63. He's getting an education that you won't find in any text book that's a for sure. The kid is eating all our profits, I forgot how much a 6'3" 135 lb.16 year old fence post can eat, wow! He eats the 3 massive sandwiches his step mother packs him on the way to work. I made 2 large home made Pizza's Friday, 1 for the 3 of us and 1 for him. Plus he ate the 2 left over slices of ours!!! An hour later he has his head in the fridge looking for food. If he is a representation of his so called Millennial generation we are going to be just fine.

Mod EDIT: please remember the generous sponsor of this free forum IS an online retailer. AND does sell motor flushers, among thousands of other maintenance and repair products/parts
