telltale hose grommet/fitting

[Bob Hurst]

Just got a 1994 9.9hp Johnson, need a plastic part. The part is I think called a grommet or hose fitting. This part holds the hose snugly against the lower motor cover, right now the hose just hangs out of the hole. I've seen them on other similar vintage motors. Most recently on a 1998 15hp Johnson I had. Anybody know the proper name and maybe a source? Thanks, Bob

I bet a dealer could tell you the name of it, and supply the part.

why not just let it hang out the hole? less likely to get clogged that way. A cable tie with the tail still on will keep it from getting knocked back into the motor housing.
