Missing bolt - 78 Johnson 70hp

[JeffSmith]

Upon further inspection of this motor I just got, I found a bolt is missing. I do not even know what to call this part, so I drew an arrow pointing towards where the bolt should go (I think). It is a part of the throttle system. I have a bigger pic if you want me to email it to you. Anyone know what size, thread, and length bolt I should get?

Thanks!

That screw is for the throttle lever. BRP part number 0318192, will be around 8 bucks at the dealer.

Sorry, am unsure of the thread/bolt size.

Thank you very much for the help!! Another stupid question, what does BRP stand for?

Thanks

BRP-Bombardier Recreational Products.

Long story short, they are the new owners of Johnson/Evinrude as opposed to OMC.

Pretty much just meant that it was the stock part number, as opposed to an aftermarket. The following website allows you to order OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer, or stock) online. Your local dealer could also help.
