Hello all , having some low fuel pressure issues. Narrowed it down to the check valve since it drips just by pressing the hand primer without even the needle on the pressure gauge registering any pressure.I know they were a few variants to the check valve.Does anyone have the right part number for the one I need and the opening pressure for it?

 

2001 etech , 427hp.

Thanks in advance

Does yours have the plastic bleed back hose to it? 60-80 psi is good!

Yes ... barely getting 20psi...at idle. I've already done the diag. I I tightened the jam nut on the check valve and it somehow jumped up to 70 .. but now it's back to low pressure. Hence why I'm needing the part number. I'm pretty sure the check valve should not open with the pressure from the hand primer , especially if that pressure is so low that it doesn't even register on the gauge that is hooked up to the fuel rail.
