Johnson 40 HP 1989 Model J40E1 CEC S/N G02338686<br /><br />There is a hose disconnected from the back of the Air Silencer at the bottom port side.<br /><br />It runs aft and I cannot see what it is connected to.<br /><br />I have not been able to locate this item in the SELOC Manual. (Covers All 1 1/4 HP, 1 and 2 Cylinder, 2-Stroke Models from 1971-89)<br /><br />What is it for and what would result if left disconnected? <br /><br />I have no idea how long it has been disconnected.<br /><br />Thank You,<br /><br />Gerry Smith

Re: Disconnected Hose

it should connect to the bottom of the intake manifold nipple there. it lets gas from the carbs that drip out to get out of the motor or something.
