Check Valve

I'd like to install a check valve right behind my pump so that it maintains prime a little better, but I couldn't find anything obvious while searching at Summit.

Does anyone have a part number for a check valve that will work in a 3/8 or 5/16 fuel line?

Thanks!
- Dave

The shurflo pump comes with a check valve built in.

An EFI pump.. thats another story. Steve at SMC sells them pretty inexpensive.

On about the 5th try, I found a CV that was impervious to alcohol right under my nose... it's the same one used for the charcoal cannister and EGR. Part number is on my Alky page in the link below. I used one for the first few years I had my setup but later decided the Shurflo pump is safe without an additional CV.
Thanks,
Steve

Liberalism faltered when it turned out it could not cope with truth. D. Moynihan

Some in my party threaten to send a message that they don't know a just war when they see it, and more broadly that they're not prepared to use our military strength to protect our security and the cause of freedom. Joe Lieberman

Somehow liberals have been unable to acquire from life what conservatives seem to be endowed with at birth: namely, a healthy skepticism of the powers of government agencies to do good. Daniel Moynihan


When we are planning for posterity, we ought to remember that virtue is not hereditary. T. Paine
