After calling numerous companies all have stated Model #17wf2acp211 does not have a fuel pump listed.
Also, the vaccume line hooks into a box then travels to the air cleaner housing, this was intact.
Personally, I think the box that the vaccume line hooks up to is a pump that pumps pressure into the tank so fuel pressure pushes the fuel to the carburetor. Only a thought, but possibly if this infact a vaccume pump is out.
