I would expect that to be a non vacuum version 722.117

Does it have a linkage at the front of the transmission on the right hand side? If so this is a solid linkage that connects to the accelerator linkage. For these types of transmission the place for the vacuum dashpot is actually a screw to adjust the modulating pressure. So no vacuum needed (if it is the type I think it should be).
