I have a Johnson Seahorse and am endeavoring to finish reinstalling my carburetor. The engine has an electric switch that should connect to the choke lever via a small connecting rod. I broke the rod (not much more than a wire) when trying to reattach it. Any suggestions as to where and how I should search for this part? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

9.9 HP 2 stroke, Model 10EL79B. Should attach the electric switch in the photo to the carburetor. No pics, but it looks like a 2 inch piece of wire with bends in it.

Found it on MarineEngine.com. It is a Choke Solenoid Link. I had to look under starting accessories .

Wish I had those skills. Don’t want to be stranded 12 miles out on Erie. Luckily I found one under electronic accessories for the motor.
