Abstract
A grommet adapted to be inserted in a fueling cavity of housing of an engine driven device. The grommet is design to at least partially seal the fueling cavity to inhibit fluids entering the interior of the housing. The grommet is a one piece structure that has a side section and a lower intermediate section. The lower intermediate section includes an opening to provide access to at least a portion of a filler tube that is used to fill a fuel tank of the engine driven device. The lower intermediate section also includes a lip that extends outwardly from the housing of the engine driven device.
