Thanks everyone for the comments.
Still waiting on Mike at WSS to get back to me on whether he has my payment or not. Will give him a call/email tommorow.
Got the new fuel pump installed on Friday. Suprise Surprise, the new one pulled fuel and primed the lines without a problem at all!
Getting the snowblower back onto the Bolens 1050 has taken priority in the shop the past couple days. Now waiting on parts for that!
