Could someone tell me about how much pressure the check valve on the return fuel line has on a 83 MCI9. I keep loosing my prime on it, I took the check out to check the seat and look for dirt under it. I dont know how much pressure the seat has, but it doesnt seem like much.

Thanks
Gary

i've never seen any published data for how much pressure the sping will hold... hold the valve in your hand, pour it full of diesel on the check side... if any leaks thru, the valve wont hold....thats the way i always checked them.... that or either suck on it from the spring side... kinda crude, but it works... and diesel always tasted funny...
