I think there must be a check valve built into the 3 port djet pump
I believe mine is not working (Hard starting symptoms) Has anyone pulled theirs apart? Pictures or a thread? I'm also wondering if adding an in line check valve would work? |

The pump itself acts as a check valve, at least to some extent. There is no specific check valve built in. There is a spring-loaded valve, but its intent is to bleed off overly high pressure from inside the pump back to the tank.
