Yes, that belongs there. I imagine leaving it off will shift the wear spot
on the pump arm, probably won't pump right and could possibly
hurt the jackshaft as well. You should _not_ have leftover parts
after engine (or any) work :-)

No, the 2000 pumps more. You run the risk of fuel starvation at high
speed. Low fuel = lean mixture = burned pistons.

John,
How can you tell the difference between the 2 ? I have several spares and
didn't think there was a difference.
