I just got a 1979 5 HP Johnson outboard but it doesn't have a fuel tank or hose.  This will be my first outboard so I'm ignorant when it comes to them.  Where do I get a fuel tank/hose?  Does it have to be a Johnson fuel tank?  What size etc.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  

Any walmart, kmart or any boat dealer. The tanks are generic you just need to buy the correct connectors for the motor you have.
