[urq] Fuel pump check valve....

Hey guys.....

Okay, so I'm trying to narrow things down for a no-start condition.  Remember that it started fine one morning, but then has not started since.  Did have some rough starting and idling conditions before....needed to "feather the throttle" on occasion.  Did the ether test.....no go.  Fixed a michelin man hose leak....no go.  Looks like possibly a fuel pump check valve.....I'm thinking that maybe since the car sat for the better part of a couple of years, maybe it's gummed up......any way to remove it, clean it out and use the same one?  If I need to purchase new, if anyone has one, or has a part # to save some hassle when calling around, much appreciated.....a parts source is always good too!  I don't have much in the way of resources here in NW Montana for Audi parts, so I'm stuck with online vendors.....

When the other half comes home, I'll check the spark, but fuel seems to be the key at this point.....

Thanks!
