I just bought a Craftsman T240 mower that was not delivered with a deck washout hose adapter.
Where can I purchase just the adapter and not a complete port installation kit?
Also the mower did not come with an oil change tube. What is the ID of the tube?

I don't have the answers to your questions but I'm not a fan of the deck washout ports and personally wouldn't use one. It's just not a good idea to deliberately get your deck and spindles soaking wet IMO. If you do use it you need to follow the instructions thoroughly and run the machine with the blades engaged afterwards for the prescribed amount of time.

Double up on Darryls comment
Air is best for cleaning the deck
A long duster 3' to 5' is the way to go

If you really must haave one most mower shops keep the generic kit
There are 2 one to destroy pressed deck on push mowers & ride ons and a slightly longer one for alloy & fabricated decks .
