[Vwdiesel] stalling, lack of power

[Bryan Belman]

I have an extra check valve that I replace in my 92
Eco Diesel.  I am sure it is fine and I wasted $38
replacing it.  I lost track of what diesel you have
here.  If it has a check valve under the rear pass.
floor coming from the tank and you want to swap it
with this one to see if that solves your problem, let
me know.
Still, put clear line between filter and pump.  Nick
from the list suggested fuel line from a motorcross
bike shop works well, heavy guage and will last.  I
have used air hose from like a fish tank but bigger
and that works, but to floppy when hot to use all the
time.
