when you remove the vac part there should be another "grid type" part that snaps in place of the vac tube. This engages the safety switch and keeps your fingers out of the impeller.

you will need to check the owners manul to see where and what type of oil it takes or if it takes mixed oil and gas and then there should be a gas/oil mixture ratio you will need.
I recommend that you contact your nearest authorized service center, or you can download operators and service manuals typically online by performing a simple Google search using your make, model number and part needed.
yes,depending on the part you can still get parts.some parts they obselete but you can still find them.go to your nearest outdoor power equipment dealer they usally will have the part you need or they can tell you where to find it.
