hello changing my carbs and fuel pump today, I have the both the carbs off and the throttle plate off the port side and I went to degrease the whole area and blow it off.. i am using a cleaner that evaporate quickly but degreases really great..lots of oil from the leaking fuel system everywhere...when i went to blow the degreaser off, one of the check valves came apart and the insides came out!!
if I leave it out, whats the issue.. i was trying to put this all together to run tomorrow..
the 97 manifold i have sitting on my bench has a different style check valvee, and they look like they will get destroyedf you tryy to remove one....thus i seems like i HAVE to buy a new one...
I found the metal ring that goes inside, but the solid piece behind that is somewhere on the groundd..
I tried to turn the brass colored housing and it seems to crumble and push in deeeper
can i leave this part out?
thanks
bob
