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?

Ok it's just a bypass

So has anyone ever added a check valve?
I imagine it adds some restriction to the system
What would be the other reasons this is a bad idea?

I'm having a hard start situation
If I turn the key it is a 25 second crank before it starts

If I turn the key off/on about 5 times and let the pump prime
Then it will start instantly

So I'm loosing pressure
I figure it's either a bad/leaky injector or a situation where the system s draining back to the tank

I will test fuel pressure and injectors when I get home
But might also test the drain-back by adding a check valve?
